Basically no classes are taught by TA’s. You might have a Ph.D. candidate teaching part of an intensive language class, but that’s fairly rare, almost all your language classes here will be taught by full-time faculty with Ph.D’s, which is really unusual at any school.

Some intro level courses like Macro and Micro and Political & Social Thought will be large, in the realm of 80-120 people. But that’s about as big as they get. Other intro level classes are under 40 people. Language classes are capped at 16. Other than that most of your other classes at Georgetown will be fairly small seminars, even at the 100 level I think most classes are under 30 people.
