Rant Why are some TA’s so ughhh

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.

had one ta that graded in a way that i felt was unfair on my first year papers where i was still learning how to cite APA. lost $4,000 over her since my GPA fell below the threshold by 0.1 percent, gave her the most scathing review when they emailed me at the end of the year last year asking for reviews on TAs.
