International Teaching Assistants

It is not too late to register for an ITA support course for Spring 2024.  Classes do not begin until the week of January 22nd, and I am still scheduling advising/placement appointments with students for this week. 

Interested students should make a course request through the online MSU Speaking Test System or contact me directly at itaprogram@elc.msu.edu.

The following courses are available for students with an MSU Speaking Test score of 40 or 45.

  • AAE 451-Oral Communication for ITAs TThF 3:00-4:20

  • AAE 452-Language of the American Classroom for ITA TThF 12:40-2:00

For students who have an MSU Speaking Test score of 50 or higher or who have already met the university oral proficiency requirement for TAs, we offer the following seminar-style course designed to support ITAs in their first few semesters of MSU teaching. This course meets once per week at a time that is agreed upon by enrolled students and instructor:

  • AAE 453- Support for In-Service ITA Teaching TBD
