Teachers work at schools, colleges, and universities where their prime job is to provide academic instruction to students.

People applying for a new position as a teacher will find a recommendation letter especially helpful in finding work easily.

Generally, teacher recommendation letters provide prospective employers with information on candidates’ skills and their ability to thrive in a similar environment as they were employed in earlier.

To Whom It May Concern

I am writing to recommend Selma Holloway for a Teaching position at Littleton High School. I have known Selma for 9 years, ever since she began working as an assistant teacher at Layton High School.

Selma is a hard-worker who is willing to take new challenges every day to impart instructions and create an excellent classroom environment. Her instructional methods are quite modern. She contributed immensely to our school by developing a core curriculum and providing instructional support, which is futuristic and conforms to International Baccalaureate standards. I hear that Littleton High School will be starting IB soon and I am sure you will find Selma to be extremely helpful in assisting you through the initial phases.

What I found to be Selma’s best asset is her ability to utilize appropriate language and positive attitude to interact effectively with students, co-workers, and staff. As a model of good behavior, she is in a league of her own and can provide extra instructional support based on individual student assessments. Every aspect of her teaching is innovative, to say the least; instruction, assessment, interaction, communication, documentation, administration, and classroom management are just some of her areas of expertise as far as teaching is concerned.

I am confident that she would contribute effectively to your school. In case you need any additional information, please feel free to contact me at (000) 222-9876.
