Under the supervision of a qualified faculty member, a teaching assistant may be responsible for assisting with such tasks as taking attendance, grading with a teacher-approved answer key, helping students with their textbook-related accounts, and other tasks necessary for the smooth operation of an assigned course.
Teaching assistants might also be assigned to be lab monitors, also under the supervision of a qualified faculty member, which involves assisting students with homework or lab work assignments, and/or actively engaging students in language-learning activities, such as games, conversation groups, or bringing in guests to participate in different ways.
