Quite a few MBA programs offer positions to 2nd year MBA students to TA first-year courses, with varying financial compensation. The MIT Sloan School, for example, will provide you with half-tuition off and a (small ) stipend.

One problem is that you never know if you will get such positions coming in. You first have to earned a top grade in the course in which you will TA, and you obviously don’t know beforehand if that will happen. Even if you do get a top grade, there are often times more candidates for the TA position than there are slots available.
