Hello,

Contact hours

Those who apply for tutors and those who apply for tutor groups are different. Those who apply for tutors should contact them before signing up. Make sure you know whether there are any tutors who have been appointed or recommended; if you apply for the tutor group, you can contact them before the re-examination. You should contact your supervisor after you understand their research direction, and you should contact them in a way that your supervisor likes.

The place to contact

It is best to be in the tutor’s office, or you can go there when you are about to get off work. It is best to meet with the tutor after you have already communicated with him, so that you don’t have to worry about it. It would be too stressful. You can send an email to the instructor, ask for the instructor's contact number, send a text message to the instructor first, and agree on a time and place with the instructor before meeting, so that it will not be too presumptuous.

Contact information

The most common way is to send an email to the tutor. You can check the teacher's email address on the Taiyuan University of Technology graduate admissions website. The content written in the email: divided into three paragraphs. The first paragraph introduces yourself, and then explains your scores in each professional course at the same time. The second paragraph introduces the awards you received during your undergraduate studies, as well as your Level 4 and Level 6 scores. The third paragraph states the supervisor's research direction and explains your own intentions (for example, if you like this direction and want to study as a graduate student under the teacher). When writing a letter, your attitude should be sincere. You can address the teacher as -----professor (associate professor) or -----teacher. After writing the above content, you should write "I hope to receive a reply from the teacher, sincere thanks!!!", sign at the end, and write down the date. In other words, the format of the letter should be more formal. In addition, after writing, This letter should be accompanied by a resume (with photo). If the teacher replies to you, you should express your gratitude to the teacher. At the same time, you can explain how you met with the teacher and whether he can leave you his contact information for the convenience of future communication. This is how most students contact their tutors, and tutors generally don't like students who call them directly. If our graduate students and junior tutors in the laboratory have anything to do, they will first send an email to the senior tutor. It would be too presumptuous if you call directly (if the teacher is dealing with something more important, call him -------). There has been an example of this in our class: a student sent an email to the instructor in the morning, but there was no reply in the afternoon. Then he got the teacher's phone number from the senior, and called the teacher directly in the afternoon. The tone on the phone made the student feel bad. It only lasted 50 seconds and he hung up without saying anything.

Note: Tutors attach great importance to email. Communication between tutors and tutors and between tutors and graduate students is often through sending emails. Sometimes you send an email to a tutor and wait for two days but there is still no reply. In this case, it may be that the tutor is busy, or all the students have not responded, etc. You can contact other tutors and it won't have any impact.

About meeting with the instructor

I suggest that everyone come 2-3 days in advance for the re-examination and settle in your accommodation first (since there are more people for the re-examination, it is renting a house It’s still relatively tight), and then first contact the instructor you have contacted by email (if the instructor left you a phone number, just send a text message), and after contacting you, you can also go to other instructors at the institution you are applying for. , no matter what the result is, you can just mix it up with others. It would be better if it happened to be those teachers during the interview. Since tutors are not involved in the admission process now, unlike in the past, you can just go if a tutor wants you. The school strictly admits students based on the comprehensive score ranking of the preliminary examination and the re-examination. During the meeting, the instructor will tell you to prepare well for the re-examination and contact you after the re-examination. Generally, he will not give you a clear answer saying that he wants you.

The issues regarding contacting the tutor are summarized as follows: meet before the re-examination - meet again after the re-examination - after admission, you can notify the teacher of your admission via email or text message. After that, if you have time, you can say hello to the instructor and ask some academic questions.

The school will finally decide on a tutor after the semester starts in September. Students and tutors will fill out a two-way selection form, and the tutor will be determined.

Etiquette issues when meeting the tutor

It is best to give some specialties or fruits when meeting the tutor. It should not be too expensive, but bring as much as possible. If there are no specialties, fruits are a good choice. Try to give more, not only to the tutor himself, but also to his colleagues or students. Give him a sense of success.
