Routledge, 2007. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. Cost-effectiveness aside, teaching assistants (TAs) in primary and secondary schools have proven their worth in enabling teachers to be efficient and effective in practice. Add to this expanding roles academically and in the classroom and increased acceptance of TAs as professionals, and it is relatively easy to see how being a teaching assistant has become an attractive career path. Consultant Holmes gives potential TAs (and TAs with enough service to know what questions to ask) a good idea of the role and responsibilities of the job, the job-hunting process, starting work, balancing workload, working with children, dealing with behavior and personal issues, working with colleagues and parents, developing a sound career, and learning about hot education topics. Holmes even includes a very nice glossary for UK educational jargon. (©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
