Don't just look at his background! Although the most backed tutor recruits graduate students, the possibility of directing them is very small, and they are usually brought by second-level tutors or doctoral students. Doctoral students must have brought them, so you should ask other seniors and sisters carefully! For example, the hero Jin Yong has a big name, right? ! Some schools asked him to be a doctoral tutor in history, but he was full of misunderstandings, harming others, harming others, and misleading children. In addition, the age of the instructor should not be too large, such as 85 years of age or older, unless he is first-rate and even braver than you...
02
The administrative level of the tutor should not be too high. How can there be time to take the students with the deans, principals and other meetings every day? ! Governors, deputy governors, deputy ministers, and mayors are a lot of part-time tutors, but since a person chooses a career, he is definitely not interested in academics, so you should be careful not to run into such tutors, unless your purpose of studying is not for Seeking knowledge, but one more stepping stone...
03
Ask about the research direction of your supervisor. It is best not to touch marginal subjects, unless you want to study for a Ph.D. How can a master be an expert, even if you are an expert, will others believe it? Therefore, it is still necessary to read the direction where the recruitment unit is in great demand! For example, organic synthesis, polymer materials, and so on.
04
Ask the tutor if he has the habit of often sending papers to students! This kind of teacher is the best. Posting an article is a great help to employment! Not to mention the help to apply for PHD abroad!
05
Avoid those mentors who run business all day long or start their own company, he will not have the mind to supervise the students, he will only sell his products everywhere! Even treat students as small workers. If you run into such a mentor, you are dead! !
06
Avoid those perverted mentors. Some people have very weird personalities. Working under them will be very depressing, just like going to jail! Therefore, after you have an interest in a mentor, it is recommended to find the seniors or acquaintances whom he has brought to inquire about it, and refer to their opinions before making a choice.
07
Avoid the teachers who are half buckets of water. how do you know? If he can't state or explain a profound or abstract problem in a simple way, but can only pile up new words or new terms, then this kind of person is mostly half a bucket of water. Or, see if his articles are unreasonable in the art and science? Still dizzy after reading his article three times? Is the Chinese expression of the entire article unclear, with very obvious English syntax features? If it is, obviously... hehe, flash! ! ! why? The reason is simple, he doesn't know or understand it himself! !
08
Last but not least, the instructor should have extensive knowledge and research interests should be as broad as possible, but concentrated! ! How do you know if his knowledge is extensive? You should prepare the materials yourself, and then consciously ask him a few pediatric questions in related fields. If he can answer his questions, he obviously has insufficient professional knowledge. However, you have to know that it is easy to ask a person, so don't ask too hard or too biased, otherwise the instructor will immediately become alert. For example, suppose he claims to be a researcher of Western translation theories, but he does not know the basic situation of contemporary or ancient Chinese translation theories. If he claims to study Chinese translation theory, but he doesn't know the theory of Buddhist scripture translation or the basic theories of the Four Books and Five Classics, the ancient Chinese is not very good, right? ? So, when you encounter such a mentor, take a detour!
