He has a sincere desire to continue his education and has the intelligence and motivation to perform at a high level.

Name has excellent communication skills. In addition, she is extremely organized, reliable and computer literate. Name can work independently and is able to follow through to ensure that the job gets done. He is flexible and willing to work on any project that is assigned to her. Name was quick to volunteer to assist in other areas of company operations, as well.

Name’s resume clearly demonstrates her academic qualifications, which are outstanding. Beyond that, in my course she demonstrated a healthy approach to the subject matter. In a large class, her comments and questions always pointedly and helpfully relevant. She did not occupy class time unduly with her interests, but per word uttered in class, I can think of no student who contributed more to the success of the course.

Name has done an excellent job and I would highly recommend her for a position with your organization. Please let me know if I can provide you with any further information.

Respectfully,
