I am applying for the AAS to attain a Doctor's degree.I'd be very glad to receive feedback from professional contributors.
Currently I work as a lecturer of undergraduate students. While being a lecturer means to become a teacher and researcher, pursuing the Doctor's degree in Applied Linguistics will contribute to my career advancement as both a teacher and a lecturer. First, the proposed study opens more opportunities for me to train my teaching skills in-depth. I have gained adequate teaching skills from my Master's and Bachelor's degrees. However, I still lack the skill of fitting the language classroom into the 21st century demands. My weakness may be caused by inadequate analyses and implementation of recent findings and practices. Meanwhile, the doctorate program will sharpen my overall teaching skills by rigorously reviewing best practices. Being able to teach better will help improve my students in many ways as I believe the better I teach, the better my students will be. Moreover, I can also share my successful teaching practices to other teachers so that I can multiply the positive effect. This way, I can see myself a well-educated member of society in the field.
Secondly, my career as a researcher will be particularly supported by the study. Up to this point, I have identified my weaknesses in researching. They include inaccurate reading of research urgency, lack of experiences in applying various research methods, and lack of analysis and discussion skills. The proposed study will conscientiously address these weaknesses thus assist me with my career. The study will intensively train my researching skills because during my study most learning experiences will involve research that aims to deepen my understanding of a specific topic. Aside from the experiences in research, I can also enrich my experience in publishing journal articles with the professors. All published articles will be recorded as credits that contribute to my career promotion. Finally, upon completing the Doctor's degree, I can become a well-educated society and a highly trained professional workforce.
