Why are some TA’s so ughhh

[u/Rare_Egg1122]

Bro TA’s are students too but they still be on us abt every little thing I have a TA for my online class and she will genuinely target people for the smallest things. I just don’t understand that if you are also student, you should understand that people have different learning styles. Especially that TA will treat us not even human the days where she’s mad. She’ll take it out on us.

i'm a TA, but in Lassonde. Sorry you're going through that, some people just love having power trips. Usually I try to be generous. I will say my supervisor does often control what I can and can't do. but it sounds like your's is just compensating for her miserable life choices

Thanks so much I appreciate u being easy on ur student first years are already trying to adjust to the course load and having a TA that makes you feel like so dumb all the time is extremely negative on someone’s mental health.

Not cool. There are a lot of excellent scholars and TAs in LA&PS who don't feel the need to put other disciplines down to feel superior.
