My Best Grad School Advice

I was recently asked, what is one piece of advice that you would give a future grad student. I shared, but I have three things! Lol! So I'm discussing all three in this week's video.

Toyin, I don't usually post as a busy exec, grandma, and grad student, but I have been so encouraged and supported by your very helpful, clear, and straightforward advice! Thank you so very much for the work you are doing! For those of us without mentors or who have not seen family and relatives take this path, you are so appreciated. You will always be in my prayers and mentioned in my gratitude journal. Hugs!

[@theacademicsociety]

Wow! This means so much to me! I'm truly touched! Thank you so much for sharing this with me! I'm so happy that you've found my channel and that my videos are encouraging to you! Hugs back to you!

I wish I had you as my math teacher

[@theacademicsociety]

Thank you for the compliment!

Ms. Toyin, can i invite you talk in my school to speak in a webinar?

[@victorespinoza515]

Great advice! I think my why got lost somewhere in between classes, teaching, and research so I'm trying to dig it out. As always great videos and thank you from a first year McNair alumnus.

[@theacademicsociety]

Yay!!! Thanks so much for watching!

[@KENYANODYSSEY]

I really needed to hear this!!! I’m in my first semester of my MS program and I am figuring out my why !

[@theacademicsociety]

Yesss!!! So glad you found this video! It's so important!

I’ve been subscribed to you since I finished undergrad and it’s taken me 2.5 years to finally finish my grad applications (as of yesterday) and I’m so happy I did. It took me that long to find my “why” and I feel a lot more secure in my decision to finish apply and (hopefully if admitted) attend grad school for architecture so I can create buildings with practical design! It will allow me to design with a purpose and give back to communities and help me obtain the lifestyle I want 💛

[@theacademicsociety]

Oh wow! I love this! Congratulations on finding your why and finishing your applications!

[@jadebethj4807]

I really love your channel! Starting my program in the fall. Can you make videos specifically about teaching and keeping students engaged and interested in the material, etc?

[@theacademicsociety]

Thank you so much! So glad you found me! I have a couple videos about my teaching experience and planning for class that may touch on what you are looking for: kzbin.info/aero/PL3psXV6jr7CE6qrtZN8isnfjyGuTaIVDm

I love your "why"! Me and countless others have benefitted from it! My why is b/c I am a life long learner who want to impact the lives of children through music and the arts to help combat societal-ills. Tfs

[@theacademicsociety]

This is so good! I love it! Thanks for sharing this!

[@LukasAndalus]

Thanks for the wonderful advice, Toyin! I've been really enjoying and benefiting from your videos!

[@theacademicsociety]

That's so awesome! Thank you for watching!

[@gracez2723]

Would love to watch a video on how to enjoy graduate school and be successful at the same time!

[@theacademicsociety]

It's definitely about managing your time and priorities for sure!
