留学推荐信怎么写才好?
留学推荐写作注意事项,写作注意事项有很多,首先就学校方面而言,必须先了解申请科系的特质(推荐信内容可强调此点特质);整理各校对推荐信内容的要求,即可得对於评估的`基本要求(例如:学术研究潜力、创造力等),及特殊要求(例如:对研究领域的适应度等)。试想:你认为审核委员会希望由推荐信中,获取那些关於你的资料。
就个人方面
分析自己的优缺点,在校成绩及工作表现,有无特殊经历可展现自己自己在此领域研究发展的潜力,或拥有那些特殊的能力(电脑、语文等),依此作为选老师写推荐信及提供其了解你的基础。并以明确具体的证据来支持证明自己的特殊能力和个人特质(例如:实验成果、研究计画、学术出版品、课外活动等)。
就推荐者方面
首先一定要确定老师不会扯你后腿。可询问有经验的学长姐,预先了解几个推荐者的习惯,以找到最合适的师长。最好是在申请领域内有国际学术地位或特殊研究成果的教授。
推荐信其他注意事项
1、要早点联系推荐人。
如果你早就决定出国学习,而且专业方向定下的话,在你帮助一位教授完成一个项目而你的表现也不错的时候,及时地请教授写一封推荐信当然是最好了。或者是你申请教育学,而又刚刚在一所中学做了两个月的实习教师,为什么不马上请该校的校长或教导主任给你写一封推荐信呢?这样至少能保证到申请时推荐人不会忘了你做过什么。如果你已经着手申请,至少要提前一两个月和教授打招呼,给教授留充足的时间为你写推荐信,无论对于你赶申请期限,还是减轻推荐人压力都是很有利的。
2、主动给推荐人提供自己的详细信息。
争取在推荐人着手写推荐信之前和推荐人详谈一次,哪怕只有10分钟,主要谈谈自己的学业成绩和自己的目标,申请专业和方向。同时最好提供一份自己的详细简历,当然,如果你的自述信已经成稿或有草稿的话,可以一并提供。这样便既可以使推荐人在推荐你时有的放矢,针对你申请的'课程推荐,又可以避免推荐信过于泛泛而无实例的弊端。
3、推荐表vs推荐信。
很多学校都有固定格式的推荐表,虽然是为了方便推荐人,但实际上却给中国的大部分推荐人带来很多麻烦。如果你一下子申请20所学校,光填表也够教授累的。对于一些特别声明用推荐表的学校,你尽量用推荐表,另外附上推荐信即可。而对于大部分学校,你都可以把自己要填的一部分,即申请方向或/和放弃阅读的权利声明,签上字即可。而只要推荐信中包含推荐表中的内容,就可以直接附上签过字的推荐信即可。
留学推荐信范文
Dear Colleagues:
As a teacher in Department of Biology, Nankai University, a leading university in China, I am very pleased to take this opportunity to recommend one of my favorite students to your PhD program.
In September, 20XX, Miss Zhang was my students in General Biology, the first professional course they take in the field. She likes it very much. I teach her in an open and interactive manner, she is active and passionate about answering class questions. Miss Zhang is bright, energetic and enthusiastic girl who loves speaking out her own ideas. She never escapes from those points of which she is skeptical. Apart from that, she often puts forward her ideas upon questions and exchanges all of her innovate ideas with me after class.
Upon ending of General Biology course, I asked my students to write an essay upon their understanding of biology. I discovered Miss Zhang’s essay was so impressive and persuasive; her careful essay comes from dozens of references to Biology literatures. In essay Miss Zhang stretched out her creative thinking upon status quo of biological research and branches in the field of biology. All of this speaks to her creative and logical and scientific thinking capability. I am gladly to say that Miss Zhang has a clear understanding about General Biology, that comprehension has been reflected fully in her essay. Therefore Miss Zhang got a full point for her essay in her class, and other students took it as model essay for granted.
I believe Miss Zhang’s industriousness, passion and dedication will make her an ideal candidate you are seeking for your program, so I highly recommend her without any hesitation to you. And I will greatly appreciate it if you could accept her into your program.
Sincerely yours,
Prof. ×××
