Dear Harvard Board of Admissions,
I am writing this letter to you as a recommendation for admitting Leonard Staltz to your Academic programs. I had the privilege of having Leonard in three of my classes during his time in high school and I can tell you, from first hand experience, that Leonard is one of the hardest working students I have ever encountered.
Leonard has an exceptional ability to balance extracurricular activities with his classwork. He spends a great deal of time on the school campus running the school newspaper, being involved with the school radio station and acting as president of the debate club. For most students, this would be spreading themselves too thin. But Leonard also happens to be his class valedictorian, so he can handle the load.
In my classes, Leonard was always at the top of the class in terms of grades and respect from the other students. He is an extrovert, which means that he became a resource for the students who were struggling. He would set aside his own time to tutor his classmates and help them to understand the material.
Leonard would be a significant asset to your school and would be a source of pride for you incoming class. Please call me at 000-000-0000 or email me at email@email.com if you have any questions.
Sincerely Yours,
Geoff Tate
