Letters of Recommendation
  • Recommender 1

    When I asked my teacher to write my letter he said he's been waiting for me to ask. He told me I was the highest achiever in terms of work ethic he's ever seen in his 30 years of teaching.

  • Recommender 2

    I've had him for four years as an advisor and freshman year for math. He was the nicest teacher I've ever met and we'd always strike a conversation over the past 4 years if we ever ran by each other. While I was in his class, I was often the only one raising my hand.
