It warms the very cockles of my heart.
Received my TA evaluation back from the virology course, last term.
For the TA-specific questions, I received a average 'score' of about 4.87 out of 5. Ranked in the top quartile in everything.
But the responses that really make me happy were:
"The lab instructor gave clear explanations: 4.81/5"
"The ... put material across in an interesting way: 4.75/5"
"The ... encouraged constructive criticism: 4.73/5"
"Overall, the lab instructor was an excellent teacher: 4.90/5"
It didn't hurt that I had *fun* with these students.
Methinks I'm headed in the right direction.
