博士面試時英語自我介紹技巧
一、 第一句話(first word)見到考官的第一句話,很關(guān)鍵,不用說的很復(fù)雜?梢允且粋簡單句,但一定要鏗鏘有力。展示出自信和實(shí)力。千萬不要來一句“sorry, my English is poor”.常見的開頭有:1. Good morning! may I introduce myself ..2. I am glad to be here for this interview. First let me introduce myself. I’m peter white, my NO is …(北大清華等學(xué)校參加面試的考生很多,可能對考生有一個編號,說一下自己的編號顯得很職業(yè),也很正式。)
二、作自我介紹——成長經(jīng)歷(making a self-introduction ——developing history)有很多學(xué)校要求做一個自我介紹,這一問題并非在請你大談你的個人歷史?脊偈且谀愕慕榻B中尋找有關(guān)你性格、資歷、志向和生活動力的線索。來判斷你是否適合讀考博。你可以先介紹一下成長的經(jīng)歷,出生地和畢業(yè)學(xué)校等內(nèi)容。在這一部分要介紹的有些特色,讓老師在聽幾十個人流水帳式的介紹中增加一點(diǎn)樂趣,就權(quán)且當(dāng)作考博人際關(guān)系管理的第一個挑戰(zhàn)吧!
I come from ******,the capital of *******Province. I graduated from the ******* department of *****University in July ,1997. (很簡單的一句話,一定要發(fā)音準(zhǔn)確!要把畢業(yè)學(xué)校的英文準(zhǔn)確名字搞清楚了。)
你可以借光一下家鄉(xiāng)的名人,可以用這句高水平的話,展示高超你高超的口語。You know, there is a saying that “The greatness of a man lends a glory to a place”. I think the city really deserves it.
另外在介紹性格和愛好的時候,適合把家庭介紹結(jié)合在一起,可以說父母給了你哪些方面良好的影響。不要流水帳似的介紹家庭成員?梢赃@么說: Just like my father, I am open-minded ,quick in thought and very fond of history. Frequently I exchange ideas with my family during super. In addition , during my college years, I was once the chairman of the Student Union. These work have urged me develop active and responsible characters.

三、作自我介紹——職業(yè)發(fā)展(making a self-introduction ——career development)這是很關(guān)鍵的一部分,也是考博考官會重點(diǎn)考察的一部分。要把工作經(jīng)歷和考博的學(xué)習(xí)以及職業(yè)發(fā)展方向作為一個整體來談,讓老師感到你選擇考博是一個理性的選擇而不是一時沖動,選擇考博是職業(yè)發(fā)展中的一個必然選擇,而不是因?yàn)檎也坏焦ぷ。你可以用這些句型: 1、In the past years, I’ve worked at IBM as a software engineer. In my work, I found communication and management is very important. I always believe that one will easily lag behind unless he keeps on learning. So I choose 考博! if I am given a chance to study 考博 in this famous University, I will stare no effort to master a good command of communication and management skill.(在過去的幾年中,我作為一個軟件工程師在IBM工作。在工作中,我發(fā)現(xiàn)交流和管理非常的重要。我一直認(rèn)為一個人很容易落后,如果不持續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)的話,所以我選擇了考博!如果我有機(jī)會在這個著名的大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)考博,我會不遺余力的掌握溝通和管理的技能。)
附英文自我介紹一篇
It’s my pleasure to be here to introduce myself. That’s a difficult question. I think all the night. How to introduce myself? Tell you who I am? You all know my name is Liu Xiaonao. Tell you what my major is or what I am doing now? You all know I study ink-jet paper, and yesterday you all my examiners. So today I’ll tell you my characters and favorites. I’m an open-minded, kind and smart girl. I like dancing, especially national and classical dancing, waltz is also my love. Dancing can make me relax when I study tired. But about two years I have no chance to dance because my study subject is more attractive than dancing. Last month I began to study play piano. But till now I only can play one song “jasmine flower”. Maybe I’m a slow learner. I also like drama. I had participated in the exam of actress. I’m very luck I succeed in the exam. But make me surprised the director asked me to give him 50,000 yuan. So I went back to my study. Now I realize what I really like. That’s my major—printing and paper making. It’s the place which can actualize my own personal worth. That’s my life, wonderful life and interesting life. I hope the sun is always in my life. Thank you.
