How to contact your own training teacher

First: "first come, first served". Some teachers will let you prepare for the second interview first, and then talk about it after admission; Some teachers will reply that you can accept it if you are accepted, so congratulations, you have reached an oral agreement with the intended tutor for the time being. In this case, the tutor will be confirmed through the second interview.

Second, show yourself and show the ability of inner communication. In fact, the process of contacting the tutor is a process of discovering your own bright spot, selling yourself and endorsing the interview in advance.

Third: the collateral effect. For example, sometimes the tutor will arrange for the students in the group to meet you and introduce some basic information. You can get more information through your brothers and sisters, for example, what interview questions you will ask before.

How to inquire about the research direction of the tutor?

I won't repeat the importance of the research direction, so how do we know the research direction of the tutor? There are usually four ways:

1, official website website of the college.

Every school's official website will have a basic introduction of the tutor, which is the most direct way to understand the research direction of the tutor.

2. Tongfang Wang Zhi

The same party knows. Com collected the graduation theses of most tutors' master students and doctoral students. If we can find the latest graduation thesis of the research group, we can also determine the current research direction of the tutor.

3. Google Academic

Most teachers publish more English periodicals, so most tutors have their own Google academic homepage, which contains detailed foreign periodicals and quotations published by tutors. Through the foreign periodicals published by the tutor, we can better understand the research direction of the tutor.

4. Small class courses for postgraduate entrance examination and re-examination of materials

For students who have applied for the small class course of postgraduate entrance examination and retest, there is a special course to introduce tutors. Because the lecturers who teach in small classes are all graduate students, they know the teachers in their colleges very well and can easily find out some specific information of their tutors, so students can consult the research direction of their tutors and get important information in a time-saving and labor-saving way.

How to choose a tutor?

What kind of tutor we choose also has a lot to do with our own future planning. Suggestions should be determined according to their own important aspects and self-evaluation.

If you are a scientific research strength type, you like scientific research very much, and plan to continue studying for a doctorate in the future and consider engaging in scientific research in the future, then you can choose a scientific research strength type tutor. Your same goal is: to produce results-a large number of articles and high grades, hello everyone, hello everyone!

If you are a graduate student, then you just want to go to graduate school and get a degree. Gold plating is very important, but scientific research doesn't matter. Then what you probably want is a smooth process, graduation on time, and easy job hunting in the future. What you are looking for should be a tutor who doesn't crowd students, doesn't graduate, and has enough articles to find a job. This kind of tutoring is more Buddhist, and if you get extra points, you are obedient. Write a graduation thesis for your tutor when you graduate. As for the output of the article, you have to be a little Buddhist.

There is a principle to contact the tutor.

First of all, it is important to tell the truth and not to embellish it. Sincerity is very important.

Avoid disturbing the tutor during working hours. Generally speaking, you shouldn't call your tutor during class or office hours. It is best to contact him by e-mail. It is best not to contact after lunch break and 9 pm.

Concise and lively, not beating around the bush. Re-examination candidates should not spend all their energy on contacting the tutor, ignoring the preparations for other things in the re-examination, which leads to their miserable performance on the spot, so even if you have a good emotional connection with the tutor, it will not help.

Contact information: Find the tutor's email address through official website or check the tutor's article, and send an email to the tutor.

How to write an email?

1. When contacting the tutor, it is best not to use QQ email, but 163 email is recommended.

QQ mailbox is easily identified as spam and blocked because of the flood of advertisements.

You can set the read receipt function in 163 mailbox, which is very easy to use! If the tutor reads your email, the system will automatically reply to you; Even if the tutor didn't reply to your letter, the tutor must have read this email and got to know you.

Don't forget the subject of your email. The subject of the email can be "candidate's name+postgraduate contact tutor+cover letter".

In this way, the tutor will know at a glance what the intention of this email is, and your name is on it, which is a very important detail.

3. Don't use too many words

Tutors don't have much time to read long words, and of course they shouldn't be too short, so it's difficult to introduce themselves to tutors completely.

4. Details are very important

Don't confuse the format of the email with the name of the tutor. Pay attention to changing the email name to the teacher's name when forwarding the email. Many students make this mistake every year. The wording must be carefully scrutinized, polite and modest. I suggest you show it to your classmates or teachers around you, and make sure there is no problem after repeated revisions before sending an email. If you sign up for the postgraduate re-examination, our lecturer will modify your email one by one.

introduce oneself

Make it clear that he is going to apply for graduate students, and then introduce his own situation, undergraduate achievements and scientific research experience. You can also attach positive materials such as transcripts, such as award-winning certificates and scanned papers (excerpts).

6. Can I send an email at any time?

Generally speaking, from 8: 00 pm to 9: 00 pm, the tutor is more likely to reply, and of course it depends on the tutor's personal habits. There is no fixed best time, and the communication content and methods of contacting the tutor are different in each time period. You can contact the tutor before the initial test, after the initial test, after the retest line comes out and after entering the retest, but you must not disturb the work and life of the tutor.

7. What if my tutor doesn't reply to my email?

In fact, most tutors will not take the initiative to reply to emails! Don't worry even if you don't reply to the email. There are many possible reasons for not replying to emails. We just need to ensure the quality of every email we send. Even if the teacher doesn't reply to you on his own initiative, as long as he has read your email, it will be helpful to you.

8. What should I pay attention to when contacting the tutor by phone?

If you must make a phone call, you can refer to the following process:

(1) Prepare the outline of telephone communication with the tutor in advance, including opening remarks, question outline and conclusion.

(2) If you contact by mobile phone, send a text message first, briefly introduce yourself and ask the teacher if it is convenient to answer the phone.

(3) After receiving the tutor's confirmation reply, dial again every 1 ~ 2 minutes, but the interval should not be too long. If the tutor says that the time is not convenient now, you can further communicate a convenient time by SMS. After the tutor confirms, he will reply by SMS, and he will remember to call at the appointed time (note that you can confirm with the tutor by SMS before formal communication).

(4) If the tutor doesn't reply to the text message, send it again every once in a while. If there is no reply, please don't call again.

(5) If it is the telephone number of the tutor's office, you can dial it during working hours. It should be noted that: first of all, you should ask if the other person is Professor XX (know his correct position in advance). If you don't know, you can just call him Teacher XX. After confirmation, briefly explain the intention of this call and ask the tutor if it is convenient. If you get a positive answer, communicate according to the outline prepared in advance; If the instructor says it is inconvenient, you can make an appointment and express your willingness to communicate.
