What should graduate students pay attention to when they choose a tutor?

Autumn in September, autumn is crisp, and it is the beginning season for primary and secondary school students to welcome the new school year. As students who have passed the arduous postgraduate entrance examination and entered colleges and universities to start postgraduate study, they are faced with one more choice than undergraduates, that is, how to choose a tutor. Whether you can choose your favorite tutor is directly related to whether graduate students can study, work, live and even graduate smoothly in these three years.

Recently, a newly graduated student sent an email to his favorite tutor to the effect that:

I have signed up for school, and the natural environment and learning environment of the school have won my heart, but I feel uneasy because my tutor has not landed. The double election is coming, I take the liberty to disturb the teacher and want to be a teacher's disciple. I wish the teacher success in his work.

The graduate student wrote hundreds of words magnificently, but the tutor's reply was very simple, almost saying that he rejected this classmate, which made him even more confused, so he sent it out for everyone's help.

This is an email that failed to contact the tutor. Many netizens commented on this email. Most netizens think: If I am a tutor, I don't want you either.

I have the following views:

1, send an email to the tutor, regardless of the topic? Rainbow fart? Not too much, or the effect will be counterproductive.

At the beginning of the email, the classmate praised the school, roommates and seniors in half the space, but what does this have to do with the tutor? The writing of this email obviously has deep traces of students' writing, but there is really no need to show your literary talent here. If you want to kiss the teacher's ass, you're obviously missing the point, aren't you?

The tutor's work is very busy. Seeing such a long and nonsense email from a strange student, my first feeling must be disgust, and I feel that I am wasting my time after reading it.

2. The email is not properly worded.

E-mail said? There is not much time for the double election meeting, so you took the liberty to write it? What does this sentence mean? Maybe you want to express your anxiety that you can't choose a tutor, but you should pay attention to the notice from the department, instead of asking about the policy of the tutor school's double election meeting. And this sentence will give the tutor another feeling, that is, you don't have the time and qualification to choose another teacher, so choose this tutor as the second best.

The teacher will not be happy to see it.

The meaning of the tutor's reply is very clear.

The tutor's reply was short, but it also answered your question. First of all, let me tell you that the school's double-election policy has not yet been promulgated, and it is also in accordance with the past? A tutor can only take one master's degree? Tell you that he has no place to take a master's degree. At this time, you have to choose another tutor.

Generally speaking, this is an email that failed to contact the tutor. Then the question is coming:

How should graduate students contact their tutors? In my opinion, the first email to a strange tutor, a classmate who wants to be a tutor, must include the following contents:

1, the email switch is simply to greet the teacher with polite words. Don't talk too much about rainbows, let alone pretend to be empty.

Students who want to be tutors must show sincerity. Why did you choose this tutor? First of all, you should know the tutor properly, including personality, how many students you usually take, academic research direction and so on. These are the lessons you must do in private before you write an email to your tutor. You can ask your brothers and sisters, and you should read some articles published by tutors.

Therefore, the reasons for choosing a tutor should be clearly written in the email, such as reading the teacher's XX article and being interested in the research in XX direction.

3. You already know your mentor, so you should write clearly why your mentor chose you. You should briefly introduce yourself, such as undergraduate colleges and majors, achievements in undergraduate stage and postgraduate entrance examination, previous scientific research achievements, competition results, English level, certificate honors obtained, and your study plan in postgraduate stage, so that the teacher can see if you are a student he is willing to accept.

Finally, you can show your determination to the teacher and your attitude that you want to learn from the teacher again, but don't be too wordy.

Conclusion After the postgraduate entrance examination, it is necessary for prospective graduates to contact their favorite tutors in advance. Although the former classmates didn't think of contacting the tutor until after the start of school, although the email was unsuccessful and rejected, he bravely took the first step of postgraduate entrance examination.

Before you write an email to your tutor, you must know something about your tutor. First, determine the number of tutors and students. Second, don't praise the teacher blindly, and of course avoid jumping into one blindly. Pit? After all, the quality of instructors is uneven.

What must be included in the email is that you know the tutor and want to learn from him, then show your achievements and abilities, and give the choice to the teacher to see if the teacher is willing to choose you. The content of the email must be short and pithy, and the big composition teacher is not in the mood to read it.

Of course, it doesn't matter if the tutor refuses your request directly or euphemistically in the reply email. Don't be discouraged. Maybe his student quota is full, maybe you are not the choice he wants. No matter which tutor you follow, your own efforts are the most important!
