Graduate student enrolled, not wanting to attend classes, not wanting to come to school, not wanting to meet with the supervisor? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I'm a postgraduate student. I don't want to go to school, I don't want to come to school, I don't want to see my tutor.

I feel like a failure. My teacher's long-term disapproval of me has made my self-confidence increasingly poor. I am very inferior and feel that I am not suitable for graduate school.

I went on an internship for a while a while ago, and during that time I felt very good, happy every day, with things to do and feeling that I was of value. But after I returned to school, my supervisor continued to express disapproval of me, feeling that my internship was meaningless and that I hadn't even found a topic.

Every time he talked to me, he sneered and spoke to me in a mocking tone. He felt that I didn't think at all when I said anything. I have less and less confidence in myself.

But my family has high expectations of me, and I don't have the courage to drop out of school. Every day is a real struggle.

I don't want to communicate with people either.

Hello, classmate! I totally get why you're feeling so anxious and upset. I saw what happened and I'm here for you!

I'll give you a big hug of encouragement!

It's so great to see more and more people taking postgraduate entrance exams each year! I want to congratulate you on your success. You might not have started your career yet, but there's a growing demand for postgraduates in society. While their salary might not be much higher than undergraduates, there are so many more opportunities for them!

So, you should give yourself a big pat on the back for having earned more choices in your life! You are really awesome!

?

Looking back, the road to postgraduate entrance exams has been quite hard, hasn't it? You have accumulated so much experience in this process, and have a lifetime of unforgettable experiences of sweet and sour, bitter and sweet. Every time you think of it, you can't help but savor the sense of accomplishment from your hard work and success!

It's totally normal to have a rough time in life. Is there no other way out but to give up? Dear student, is it really worth it to give up only now, after coming this far?

I know it can be tough when things don't go as planned, especially when it comes to important life decisions. But, because of the attitude of the instructor, is he really worth giving up an important stage of your life?

Dear, I just want you to think carefully about the past, present, and future for yourself, okay?

I'd love to chat with you about giving up and persevering. I think this is a really important topic, even more so than the attitude of the instructor!

Second, if your supervisor is treating you badly and making you feel inferior and lack confidence, try to think about it from a different perspective. And always remind yourself that the postgraduate entrance exam is a talent selection, and you have already made it. You are one of the elite among your peers!

You've got this! Don't doubt yourself for a second. You're already part of the awesome crowd, and I know you can become even more awesome!

It's no secret that teacher-student relationships can sometimes face challenges. But, when it comes to any interpersonal issue, communication is always the first step to finding a solution. Is there a misunderstanding between you? It's totally normal! And, with a little open dialogue, it's likely that you can resolve it.

I know it can be tough, but can you and your tutor accept each other again with generosity? Be bold, communicate well, don't think alone, and don't scare yourself to death!

You want to know for sure if the teacher still has feelings for you and if you're still on the teacher's mind.

If you still love me, let's move past this. I'm not happy with your attitude, so please be nice to me from now on! If you don't love me, I understand. I'm happy to find my own happiness with someone else (change tutors)!

But if you want to take a leave of absence to get away from your tutor, think twice! Time is precious, and you deserve to enjoy it!

If you're feeling overwhelmed or unable to handle the situation mentally or physically, it might be time to consider a change. Every school has a different system for changing tutors, so it's worth looking into the procedures to see what's available to you.

Your first port of call should be the graduate secretary or a teacher you trust!

Classmate, have you heard of the term PUA? It stands for Pick-Up Artist. It's a way of attracting people and it can be really fun! You can do it however you like, as long as it's not something that corrupts good morals, like murder, arson, fraud, or blackmail.

Greetings! I extend a warm embrace from afar as a gesture of support and encouragement.

The individual in question experiences a specific desire for affirmation, recognition, acceptance, encouragement, and support from the mentor in question.

A person's self-confidence is derived from the conviction that, regardless of external circumstances, they possess the internal fortitude and resources to effectively cope with any challenge.

From the aforementioned description, it is evident that the attitude of an external mentor will directly influence one's evaluation and understanding of the self. This phenomenon, to some extent, reflects an inner lack of confidence, stemming from the belief that one is not sufficiently competent. Consequently, one is susceptible to external influences, particularly those emanating from the attitudes of others. In other words, one's value is not intrinsic, but rather contingent upon the attitudes of others.

The attitudes of others are beyond our control and cannot be decided by us. Conversely, the only thing we can be sure of is our inner self, the person we think we are. Consequently, it is imperative that we attempt to learn to better accept ourselves, in order to be able to see both our shortcomings and our strengths.

One should refrain from defining or evaluating oneself based on the outcomes of one's actions. One can cultivate a more positive self-perception by creating a list of one's strengths in self-acceptance.

It is recommended that individuals cultivate a greater number of interests and passions in their lives, as this will afford them greater control over their circumstances.

One may record emotional feelings in writing by maintaining an emotional diary. This practice can facilitate the perception, comprehension, experience, and expression of emotions, as well as the exploration of the underlying needs associated with those emotions. This, in turn, can inform the identification of strategies for more effective emotion regulation and the fulfillment of one's needs.

My name is Lily, and I am the young woman who serves as a moderator at the Question and Answer Pavilion. I extend my love and best wishes to you all.

Hello, my name is Yuelai.

It is not uncommon for graduate students to feel that their mentors could provide more support and guidance. This sentiment is often accompanied by feelings of stress and anxiety, particularly when it comes to matters related to career development and emotional support.

With the expansion of college enrollment, the number of graduate students has risen sharply, yet the number of tutors has remained unchanged. One tutor may have as few as seven or eight students, or as many as a dozen or twenty. It is understandable that no matter how good a tutor is, they don't have the energy to tutor so many students. There is very little communication between tutors and graduate students. What graduate students often feel during their studies is that they are facing challenges on their own. Not only have they not improved their abilities, but they have to navigate fiercer competition for jobs, heavier financial burdens, and greater pressure to study. The reality after taking the postgraduate entrance exam is not as positive as imagined, so it is natural to feel a lot of pressure.

Additionally, the influence of a negative teacher can make the situation even more challenging.

There are a number of ways in which this situation can be eased.

It might be helpful to recognize your own strengths and advantages. You might find it beneficial to focus on doing things you are good at to boost your self-confidence and sense of achievement.

It would be beneficial to consider striking a balance between work and rest, and to arrange your leisure time reasonably. It might also be helpful to enrich your life.

For instance, activities such as running, sports, and recreational pursuits could be beneficial.

3. It might be helpful to consider what resources your mentor can provide you with, both academically and professionally.

If you're still unsure about going to school, you might want to consider taking a few days off to give yourself a break.

My name is Laurel, and I hope my answer is helpful to you.

Gary Thomas Time is a tapestry of joys and sorrows, woven together.

I understand how you feel, and it's really tough when you're in a place that doesn't make you happy. It seems like the internship was a bright spot for you; maybe there's a way to integrate that experience into your studies or find a path that aligns more with what you enjoyed about it.

Angela Anderson The value of a teacher is not in the grades they give, but in the minds they shape.

It sounds incredibly challenging being in an environment where you don't feel supported. Have you thought about reaching out to someone outside of your immediate academic circle for support, like a counselor or mentor who can offer unbiased advice?

Xavier Thomas The more one's knowledge encompasses different areas, the more they can be a builder of intellectual bridges.

You're not alone in feeling this way, and it's important to acknowledge these feelings. Sometimes taking a step back and reassessing your situation can help clarify what you need to do next. Maybe a break could provide some perspective.

Sandy Jackson Life is a battle for the heart and mind.

The pressure from your family must be hard to handle. Perhaps having an open conversation with them about your struggles could help them understand what you're going through and why you might need their support in a different way.

Reese Quinn The journey to erudition is paved with the acquisition of different kinds of knowledge.

Your feelings are valid, and it's okay to seek help. There might be resources on campus, such as counseling services, that can assist you in navigating these difficulties and finding a healthier academic path.
