Abstract
The Teaching Assistants of the Faculty of Psychology of the Autonomous University of Barcelona are a group of students that provide support to the teaching staff. Three years of collaborative work have demonstrated to be an effective method for the consecution of their duties. The results of two satisfaction surveys, one answered by the teaching staff and another by the same participating students, are analysed in this paper.
Highlights
The 2012-2013 academic year was the third year that the School of Psychology at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) utlized teaching assistants (TAs on)
Partcipaton was voluntary and partcipants accessed the surveys through an online link designed with the Google survey tool which was available for three months (January to March 2013). 64 teaching staf surveys and 21 TA surveys were collected in total

Summary
The 2012-2013 academic year was the third year that the School of Psychology at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) utlized teaching assistants (TAs on). These TAs provide support to the teaching staf through a collaboratve working method, which is an innovatve approach and diferentates them from the rest of the TAs at the university. The informal feedback received by the teaching staf over these three years seems to refect the efcacy of this approach. This artcle seeks to confrm and elaborate on this point. It was created as a platorm to provide teaching resources for future postgraduates of the school
