As a PGSS Teaching Assistant/Counselor, you will interact more closely and spend more time with the PGSS student participants than anyone else associated with the program. You will be required to devote much time and energy to a variety of activities, from classes and labs during the day, to social activities and homework assistance at night. You will help to shepherd 90 of the most talented students of science and math from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania through one of their most important periods of social, emotional and intellectual development. By the end of the program, you will not regret the investment of time that you have made. In fact, many former TA/Counselors consider their time with PGSS to be the most fulfilling experience of their lives.
