letter The deadline is the 6th of November Dear Sir Madam The academic reference is provided at the request of who is applying for the Program I have known for 2 years as he has taken a number of courses on Higher Mathematics which I teach i e I can say that it is not quite easy to get an excellent mark in the course examinations on the above sciences A student is supposed to find solutions to original and sophisticated problems which were not considered on workshops during the semester has successfully solved these difficult problems and brilliantly passed all the tests and got excellent marks for all examinations being quite creative and original in his answers is a very industrious student He had been always performing his homework though it was not obligatory He is not afraid to assume the responsibility At my classes he always tackled the difficult problems while others did not do so being afraid to make a mistake My hobby is a football and sometimes students invite me to take part in their matches I remember a match when was a captain of the opposite team He scored the goal at the last minute of the match thus bringing the score draw Then in penalty shots he scored the last penalty and brought victory for his team It shows that in a critical moment is not afraid of taking responsibility and being the leader Although during the football match can sometimes be rather violent in everyday life he is a very kind and caring friend with a good sense of humour Based on my professional experience I hold as an industrious intelligent well organized and easy going person with a considerable willpower I strongly believe that is an appropriate candidate for admission to the Program If you have any further questions with regard to his background or qualifications please feel free to contact me Yours sincerely http://www.englishforums.com/English/BestRegardsRegardsYoursSincerely-Correct/10/gvwwb/Post.htm#523227Thu, 05 Jun 2008 04:51:44
