Spring ITA Support Courses

Attention: International Teaching Assistants

It is not too late to register for a Spring 2025 ITA support course. Courses do not begin until the week of January 27.

To schedule an advising appointment for placement into a course, students should first make a request for ITA support course information through the online MSU Speaking Test System.

The following courses will be offered 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 ITAs (TTHF 12:40-2:00)

Students who have an MSU Speaking Test score of 50 or higher or have already met the university oral proficiency requirement for TAs are eligible to take AAE 453- Support for In-Service ITA Teaching, a seminar-style course designed to support ITAs in their first few semesters of teaching at MSU.
