How to contact the tutor in the exam? The number of doctoral tutors is limited, so you must contact the teacher you want to apply for before applying for a doctorate to see if there are any places in his hand. Generally speaking, if the tutor doesn't want you, he won't let you sign up. Call or email your tutor in advance (there is usually a contact address on the website) to introduce yourself. Especially your research direction and achievements in the master's stage. And you are willing to be his student and study hard. I. How to contact the tutor: 1. Understand his basic academic viewpoints and academic works. In case we don't know anything when the tutor mentions his work. Learn as much as possible about his works and make plans for future exams. 2. Use multiple contact methods. For example, the teacher remembers your name the first time he calls, but he may forget it the second time. Then I think you can also write emails and letters, and the traditional contact method may be more touching to the tutor. 3. Sincerity and determination. In front of the tutor, you may be a stranger, so the sincerity of a stranger can touch a person's heart best. Some questions and ideas are better told the truth. It is important to show determination. Second, how to get the contact information of the tutor. Regarding the contact information of the tutor, I mainly suggest that you contact by email first, and then consider other ways to call or visit. Many students asked about the way to get the email address. I think there are mainly the following channels: 1. School official website will generally have an introduction, mainly in the graduate school tutor. The papers published behind the tutors of various departments can be found by tutors. 2. You can query the tutor's papers through Chinese journals such as Wanfang and Full-text Journal Network and foreign journals such as webof sicence and scopus. By asking the seniors in our lab, I think there are many ways to get the email address, and the problem is not big! I think writing letters is also very good. Writing a letter by hand will make the tutor feel your sincerity! ! I suggest adding your email address at the end of the letter. After all, the tutor doesn't have that much time to write and send letters to you! Third, how to write the first email to contact the doctoral tutor plays a very important role in the whole process of contacting the doctoral tutor. How to communicate with the tutor through email is very important! I think the first email can introduce more as long as it is about personal content: age, academic experience, academic achievements, master's thesis. . . . . Wait, the main purpose is to let the tutor have a comprehensive understanding and understanding of a strange classmate through this emial! Make a first impression! ! Prepare for further contact in the future! Secondly, regarding the content of the letter, you can briefly talk about your knowledge and understanding of the tutors, laboratories and projects you will apply for in the future, so that the tutors can really feel your sincerity, confidence and determination! The third is to express my strong desire to apply for the exam, because we all know that many students have contacted many tutors and schools, and finally only a few people have applied for the exam! Therefore, we must express our firm willingness to apply for the exam and our strong interest in the tutor's topic! I think it's important to hate this! As for the future email contact, it depends on the content of the tutor's reply! Four. From my own experience of taking exams in several famous universities, I don't think the exams are particularly difficult. Tutor contact and examination information collection play a leading role in the whole examination process. Because in the whole process of doctoral enrollment, the autonomy of doctoral tutors is still great! It plays a leading role in whether candidates are admitted. Combined with my own experience and feelings, I hope to help bloggers. For the contact of the tutor, I think it is the most direct and appropriate way to contact by email at first. E-mail your personal situation and academic achievements to the tutor, so that the tutor can have a general understanding and understanding of you, and also provide sufficient thinking time for the tutor to choose students. As for the tutor's attitude towards you, you can get some useful information from the tutor's reply. There are generally the following types of letters from tutors: "Hello, there are many applicants. . . "In this case, it is best not to apply for the exam, because the general tutor only recruits two or three students. This kind of competition is very big and meaningless. Some people may think that they are very strong, but in fact, the strength is relative, depending on what the tutor thinks! It's not that you got high marks in the exam. "Welcome to register" is generally the most written reply, with half of emotions and sorrows. You can continue to strengthen contact and communication, so as to get more ideas from your tutor. "Several people have contacted to apply for the exam, please change to a tutor, thank you." The tutor's meaning is very clear, that is, the problem of students applying for the exam is basically not very big. If you apply again, even if you do well in the exam, there is little hope of admission. In this case, you'd better change your tutor. "Welcome to register, be interested in your own research direction, and then introduce a lot of your own research direction and the whole laboratory". I feel quite satisfied with this situation! There may be many kinds of letters from tutors. If you are interested, you can come out and communicate together. I think email contact is the most critical step in choosing a tutor. Basically, you can contact and confirm your tutor by email. Then, according to the email contact situation, you can choose to communicate further by telephone or on-site visit. Many friends asked if it was good to call directly. I think if the two sides don't know each other very well, the telephone communication will be very embarrassing, and it is not easy for you to know whether the doctoral supervisor is busy or not and when it is appropriate to call, so I think it is better to contact by email first, and make an appointment by email before calling! There are also many bloggers who ask: Do you need to bring gifts when you meet your tutor for the first time? I think it's good to bring some local specialties to express my feelings when I go to my tutor's house. If you go to the office, I think the best gift is your resume and some academic achievements, so that your tutor will have a good impression on you! Having said so much about the contact information with the tutor, some people may say, I just need to take my exam. What's the point of contacting the tutor? In fact, many bloggers also know that doctors in many universities are charging fees now. Does your tutor have any public places? How many places? Can self-funded tutors be funded? There is no point in consulting anyone about all these questions. The most direct and effective answer is to get it from the tutor through contact! And in my experience, some candidates are admitted by tutors. For example, candidates with high academic level and good business skills are very suitable for the research direction of the tutor, and the tutor can also relax the admission requirements! In other words, many bloggers get very high scores, but there are also many cases where they can't be admitted because there are not many master's schools or other reasons. All in all, in a word, the significance of tutor contact is still great. I hope that bloggers will choose carefully! V. Frequently asked questions 1. Q: Now that we are on holiday, can we still contact our tutor? A: Mentors really have little time to rest when they can get in touch with them. 2. Q: When does the tutor usually reply? (I have sent it to the tutor for several days, and there is no reply yet. Is it because he doesn't want me or hasn't seen it yet? So what should I do, continue to send emails, or call directly, but to be honest, I don't have his personal phone number, but I really don't know what to say when calling. A: If the tutor is interested in you, he will usually reply quickly (1 to 2 days). If he doesn't reply for a long time, he is generally not interested. If you don't give up, you can continue to send emails. 3. Q: Some school tutors have no contact information at all, let alone EAMIL. I once called the graduate school of a school, where people said that they did not advocate contacting tutors. What should I do? If they don't give me the contact information, I can't seem to find it. How to deal with this situation. Because some schools don't have bibliographies at all, you have to contact your tutor to provide them. A: There are still some tricks to get the contact information of the tutor, including email address, telephone number and work unit. The most important thing is to contact the tutor, especially now there are more and more students who take the doctoral exam directly without taking part in the work, and the tutor's suggestion becomes very important in some cases. 4. Q: If the tutor says that he is full or unwilling to take you, can he contact other tutors in this major or related majors in the same school? A: Of course. The best way is to prepare more roads, choose more schools to apply, and increase opportunities.
