Are we allowed to write reference letters as TAs? A student requested one from me and I am flattered but I don't want to breach protocol...

Great! Thanks so much. Apparently mine will be the only reference, so I was honest with the student and said that it won't hold as much weight as a professor so she can think and decide. It makes sense that we can write them, as instructors who can attest to students' skills.

Honestly we are likely better at giving references because we know our students while lecturers might not be able to remember everyone and they don’t see their work as much as we do. Depending on what the reference is for, it might not matter if you’re a TA or prof.
