Statement
I believe that as a teaching assistant I will have the ability to play a more hands-on role in a child's day-to-day learning and transfer some of my enthusiasm for learning to my students, making school a more enjoyable experience for them.
It allows the instructor to devote all their efforts to offering as much instruction, attention and assistance as possible to the students. As a TA, I would assist with and lead the more repetitive tasks, such as grading documents, supervising tests and arranging documentation, so the teacher can concentrate on the larger role of teaching and ensuring students are learning the information.
If students were not engaged, or possible disrupting, with the class and did not appear to be focusing, I would follow whatever positive behavior action the teacher and I had agreed upon previously. In most cases, this would involve separating the disruptive students on opposite sides of the classroom. By separating them, they are still a part of the learning environment without being able to disrupt the rest of the class
