This study found that teaching assistants at SMKN 01 Dompu and SMPN 04 Dompu can encourage students to think more creatively and innovatively. This was found through observation and interview methods. The program also boosts students' confidence in starting a small business. The results of the study show that teachers who are actively involved in teaching assistance programs can make education fun and relevant, thereby fostering students' interest in exploring the world of entrepreneurship.
