    Oh my goodness Thank god so happy to find your channel dear🥰🧡 I'm BA student of TEFL so I wanna study linguistics for MA and then neuro scinence for Ph.d So i don't know what should I do And how can I strength my self and learn other ability? Any any advice from u can help me a lot Do u even suggest this path to me or not?🥺

    • @lesphd
      @lesphd Před 8 měsíci

      Hi Ella and thank you for your support! ✨ I got you on this feeling a bit all over the place with career choices.. but the path that you described seems very smooth and could totally work if that is what you aim for. At the same time, overplanning can turn out to be a big trap. Your imagination can draw a perfect picture. But then you might start doing research and realise that it is something that doesn't please you at all! So my advice would be to start experimenting as early as possible. Try to explore local opportunities to get involved: take a neurolinguistics class at another department of your uni or apply for a short-term (maybe even observational) internship in a lab. If you take small actions, I am pretty sure you will figure out what to do next and whether that suits you. Good luck!
