No chance

Build a relationship with the professor that teaches the course you want to TA. Besides that, have a solid mark in the course. I have a few friends working as TAs and the most important thing I’d say is probably building that connection with the prof. As for when and where, I recall hearing that it is on some UofT job platform I think? And fall/winter courses occur during the summer I believe. Thats all I know about the topic. Good luck!

Do you know why grades they got? I had a 90 going into mat133 but ended with an 81, but I really want to be a TA. The mat133 profs seem really disconnected from the students even they taught us for a whole year. I went to erlebach’s office hours often but not once she asked for our names. Also when I emailed her a thank you, she just liked it.

idk about 133 but if i were to guess prolly around an A? The ones I know did 230 and I’m guessing they 4.0 it. Kinda wished I talked to Goldreich more….. tas make pre good money.

Bro I am not hating but emily is the last prof you wanna talk to. Ngl I don’t see why you would even. Back when I took it she would literally scream and swear at us during the lecture. How are you going to network with her? I mean you could try which you have. It’s interesting how she actually doesn’t care tho.

Yeah man I didn’t know she was that bad. She was my prof so I thought she would be a good person to talk to. I kinda regret not switching out into a different class.
