The English of graduate tutor is supervisor, which means supervisor and manager. In private, there are also classmates called the boss. To be a qualified tutor, I think I should do the following:
1. To be a qualified tutor for master students, you should have both ability and political integrity, good personality charm and solid and extensive professional accomplishment.
Be a man first, then learn. The influence of tutors of master students on the formation of students' personality spirit and the development of research ability is no less than that of primary school teachers on the formation of pupils' various personalities. Tutors have many influences on students, and the most important thing is their knowledge and quality. The tutor of new master students not only has a solid foundation in his own research field, but also has in-depth research in a certain aspect, constantly enriching and improving his professional ability and maintaining his position in the forefront of the discipline. At the same time, we should pay attention to strengthening our self-cultivation, and influence and infect students with rigorous and realistic academic spirit and hard-working professionalism, so that students can benefit from both life and study.
Second, to be a qualified master tutor, you must have a strong sense of responsibility.
Compared with undergraduate teaching, graduate teaching has no more systematic and strict operating norms and evaluation standards, so the responsibility of tutors is particularly important. Tutors should be responsible for students, first of all, they should constantly explore and innovate in their own research fields and constantly have new research topics, so as to promote students' learning and research, so that they can get exercise and training in research and constantly improve their ability to engage in research and innovation. In the process of leading students to carry out academic research, we should strengthen communication and exchanges with students, care about their ideological situation, understand their progress in study and research and all kinds of problems encountered, and give timely guidance and help. The tutor's sense of responsibility should be embodied and implemented in all aspects of the student training process and truly implemented.
Third, to be a qualified graduate tutor, you should become a "navigator" in graduate research.
Postgraduate tutors should understand the basic procedures, familiar with the basic requirements and master the specific methods of postgraduate training. In the process of training, we should pay attention to the correct and timely guidance of students, provide them with various conditions, control well and pay attention to the cultivation of the four spirits.
1. Correct and timely guidance for graduate students is not a teacher, and it is not necessary to teach their graduate students particularly specific skills, let alone instill education. What is needed is a guided education. It is necessary to guide students to carry out research along the correct research direction and cultivate graduate students' scientific research ability. Instruct students to consult relevant literature extensively. Encourage students to participate in various academic exchanges through various channels, so that they can increase their knowledge reserves and broaden their academic horizons. On this basis, they can broaden their thinking, form a keen academic vision and the ability to conduct in-depth research.
2. Providing various conditions for graduate students to carry out academic research, without the support of specific scientific research projects, can only be an armchair strategist in the end. Graduate tutors should actively strive for scientific research projects and provide necessary support for graduate students. Without scientific research projects, you can't be a qualified tutor without doing scientific research. In scientific research, it is necessary to cultivate students' ability to solve practical problems with scientific and effective research methods, so that students can form the consciousness of using scientific research methods to specifically study and solve problems, correct utopian outlines, and then combine papers and materials in logical order. It is also necessary to provide graduate students with research conditions, including experimental equipment, research sites and financial support. At the same time, set up a research team to provide graduate students with opportunities to take up jobs and work.
3. Make a good pass and strengthen communication. There are many important points in the process of scientific research that need to be visited by tutors. For the first time, graduate students will inevitably encounter many practical problems. At the beginning of the semester, they will arrange a specific study schedule for each student and supervise and check its implementation. Profession is good at diligence, but not good at leisure. Only by strictly managing students can we cultivate their spirit of hard work and achieve something. At the same time, how to choose a topic, open a topic, check information, write a research report and write an academic paper should be well controlled to effectively cultivate the graduate students' own ability.
Cultivate scientific spirit. Opportunism and fraud, which violate scientific laws and academic ethics, are common in scientific research, so we must have a realistic scientific attitude in scientific research. Tutors must set an example, guide and cultivate graduate students to form the scientific spirit of seeking truth from facts and hard work in practice.
Cultivate the spirit of struggle. Loving science and devoting oneself to the cause of science are the essential qualities of everyone engaged in scientific research, and also the life goals and values of scientific workers. Without the spirit of struggle and the correct pursuit of life, there can be no great success and achievement in scientific research.
Cultivate the spirit of unity and cooperation. In the process of postgraduate training, we should also play a team role, especially for new postgraduate tutors. Listen to the opinions of colleagues and other tutors and learn from their successful experiences. For example, we should attach great importance to the role of the team in holding forums, opening topics and defending papers.
