Tutors of graduate students generally like to ask students about their family background. Some people find it strange that teachers should care about our family background when they come to school. You don't have to check your household registration when you go to school, do you? Isn't this meddling? This is actually a misunderstanding of the teacher. Postgraduate tutors generally ask students about their families without malice or any sense of discrimination, so when the teacher asks you this question, don't shy away, just answer truthfully. Generally speaking, tutors will ask students about their families for the following reasons:

0 1. Knowing the students' family background, we can find some poor families and help them. The tuition fees of graduate students are much higher than those of undergraduates. If there is no certain economic foundation at home, it is difficult for them to complete their studies independently. We will find that many graduate tutors like to chat with their students, and they are not shy about topics such as students' family economic conditions. For students who are not very familiar with it, the teacher throws such questions mainly out of concern. The teacher wants to know the financial situation of the students' families and whether any students need help for family reasons.

The postgraduate stage is different from the undergraduate stage. Undergraduate students mainly study professional basic knowledge, which is basically classroom teaching, and generally only communicate with teachers in class, which is not the case for graduate students. They have many opportunities to communicate with their tutors. In addition, teachers declare some topics every year, which require the cooperation of students. These are paid services. When your tutor finds that your family condition is not very good, he will take care of you and let you apply for some jobs such as teaching assistant and management, which will not only exercise your ability, but also get a certain salary. So, if your family is poor, don't be shy to say so. Don't worry about telling the teacher that you won't be laughed at.

02. Learn about students' families and their personalities. Knowing students' families can help us understand their growing environment and educational environment. Postgraduate tutors should accompany us throughout our postgraduate career, so out of responsibility, we should also understand students' personalities. Postgraduates are under great pressure, which can be clearly seen from a data of graduate suicide rate. Some students encounter some stressful things, which are difficult to resolve. It is very bad that the pressure is not released, and you will be depressed if you are not careful. Therefore, teachers will understand students' personalities by understanding their educational environment and help them solve problems!

Knowing students' families can point out a career path that is more suitable for them. After graduation, a large number of people will still choose jobs, and tutors will also put forward constructive suggestions in our career planning. Knowing about students' families can help us understand the resources that students' families can use, such as whether they have relatives who are also majors in this field and have made certain achievements in this field. Teachers will make more appropriate suggestions according to students' family background.
