一、在什么情況下需要助學(xué)金申請自述

　　助學(xué)金申請自述并不是所有申請者都需要的。一般在以下兩種情況下會需要助學(xué)金申請自述：

　　1、有些學(xué)校在給予申請者admission之后，需要申請者提交助學(xué)金申請自述申請助學(xué)金。

　　2、在申請者拿到錄取之后，雖然學(xué)校沒有明文規(guī)定需要助學(xué)金申請自述，但是作為申請者可以寫一份自述作為補(bǔ)充材料進(jìn)行提交。

　　二、助學(xué)金申請自述的分類

　　助學(xué)金一般是兩種：TA（Teaching Assistantship）和RA（Research Assistantship），也有學(xué)校提供給學(xué)生行政助學(xué)金。

　　那么助學(xué)金自述也分為三類：TA自述，RA自述和行政助學(xué)金自述。

　　三種自述因為需要從事的工作是不一樣的，所以自述的側(cè)重點也是不一樣的。

　　三、助學(xué)金申請自述的寫作技巧

　　我們在進(jìn)行自述寫作的時候，一定要緊扣工作內(nèi)容，通過相關(guān)經(jīng)歷展示自己所具備的從事該份工作的實力和潛力。接下來將根據(jù)實例進(jìn)行分類闡述：

　　（1）TA申請自述

　　TA是從事教學(xué)工作，或者作為教授的助手。所以在寫自述的時候，必須表現(xiàn)出作為一名教師的實力和潛力。

　　As an applicant to apply teaching assistantship, I have worked as a part-time teacher to teach foreigners Chinese in a Language school for three years and as a full-time assistant teacher to assist foreigner professor to teach in ×××(寫上工作單位)for half of a year. Through all of these experiences, I have accumulated the following abilities and literacy which make me have full confidence to be a qualified teaching assistant in your university.

　　1、Language Ability

　　When I worked in the Language school, I used English masterly to teach foreign students Chinese and communicate with them freely. While I work in ×××, actually I play a role of a good interpretor in the class. The foreign professor is imparting the specialty Knowledge, and I interpreting them into Chinese for the students and tries my best to maintain the professor’s language style and guarantee the veracity of knowledge.

　　2、Sense of Responsibility

　　When I taught Chinese, I found although Chinese is my mother language, there was a great difference to speak and to teach. In class, Chinese is taught as a language course which requires specialty knowledge in this language. Therefore I spent much time to learn Chinese from aspect of linguistics and culture.

　　In ×××, I graduate from Donghua University which is the best university in the field of garment and textile, however, garment design is not my major. In order to make accurate and professional translation，before every class, I will look through the prof’s teaching material and consult him the terms that I can not understand clearly. After class I will collect the students’ suggestions about that class to improve them in the next class. 

　　3、Multi-cultural perspectives

　　I taught the language according to the requirements specified in the textbook. At a later time, I recognized that my job also had to do with cultural exchange. So as to guarantee the validity of my teaching, I came to understand different cultural backgrounds of my students, taught Chinese according to their ways of thinking, perspectives and meanwhile spread Chinese customs and perspectives.

　　4、Combination of theory and practice：

　　In ×××, as soon as the professor and I complete the class, sometimes I will supplement some knowledge in the real world for I worked in the garment company. I will tell them the application of these theories and marketing demands in the real world in order to help them understand the knowledge in depth and in reality.

　　In a word, I believe I will be an outstanding teaching assistant in your university and it is my honor to obtain this position.

　　(2) RA申請自述

　　RA主要是幫助教授做研究的，那么毫無疑問在自述中需要緊扣教授的研究項目，展現(xiàn)自己已經(jīng)具備的做RA需要的技術(shù)上的實力和良好的個人素質(zhì)。

　　RA:

　　As an applicant to apply research assistantship, through four years accumulation, I have obtained good computer literacy, a micro-view of Instructional technology, and logical thought, diligent, strong sense of responsibility

　　1、Computer Literacy

　　Secondly，I have grasped many kinds of computer languages and application of many software and hardware：such as： DOS, Window 98/2000/XP, UNIX; Office 2000, Photoshop, Authorware, Flash MX, Matlab, etc.; C++, Java, Pascal, C, HTML, XML, ActionScript

　　Thirdly，I have brought in a good harvest in the course of applying information technology in education.

　　In ××(時間)，in order to promote the teaching quality and efficiency of secondary school, I wrote High School English and Mathematics modules，which is based on the following technology: EduPortal, flash, dreamweaver. When I worked as a part-time assistant to educational software engineer for three summer holiday in Ladder Digital Education Corp. I was responsible to develop EduPortal :a kind of software to establish a website effectively. In this project I applied the newest architecture technology of ASP.Net provided by Microsoft

　　2、A macro-view of instructional technology

　　Since have strong interests in the field of education, in particular, instructional technology, I take many education courses such as:×××, ××× and××× etc. In the meanwhile I have spent a lot of time studying educational technology. To grasp it on a macro level, I exposed myself to theoretical studies: the development and the status quo of educational technology, learning theory and its various branches, course design and software development, audio-visual teaching in the 80s and MIT’s conceptualized classrooms. The more I know, the more interest I show in educational technology.

　　3、Logical thought, industrious, strong sense of responsibility

　　In the course of self-study of educational technology, I am expert in search various papers, publications and documents on Internet and sort them clearly. At the same time because my second degree is English, I have not any obstacle to search English websites and read English information.

　　I believe diligence plays a key role to achieve success. During the period of developing EduPortal, if writing wrong one code, sometimes the whole programming can not be run. In order to complete task without delay, I would check, rewrite, and test over and over again until identify the wrong code.
