Dear Admissions Committee:
Among all the students who have received my instruction in the courses of “International Marketing” and “Strategic Management” at ABC University, Mr. John Doe is one of the few who stood out and left with me a positive impression. Therefore, I am confident to recommend this young man to your prestigious MBA program.
John is a bright and aggressive individual who possesses a strong motivation to learn and excel in his course work. Unlike most of his peers, who gained knowledge merely from school lecturing, John would spend a great amount of efforts and time in reading outside articles and textbooks and share his ideas with the class. In addition, as an open minded individual who never let go any learning experience, John often came to me discussing various questions and problems he encountered in his coursework.
I would like hereby to draw upon an instance that I believe fully exemplifies John’s academic ability. While attending my class he presented an excellent report focusing on the research of the European Community (EC), in which he shared with us his careful observations on EC, and proposed a number of innovative suggestions for Taiwanese industries that wished to gain successful presence in that market. Having noticed his superior ability to conduct independent research studies and to support his arguments with logical quantitative analyses, I recommended John to submit his paper to the Accounting & Statistics Quarterly published by the Executive Yuan of R.O.C.. Needless to say, John has acquired very high marks in both of my courses.
The very positive impression made by John has been repeatedly re- enforced by his strong performance in various extracurricular activities. John has managed to earn full confidence from me in his sound managerial potential by demonstrating an intelligence, aggressiveness, and leadership quality in both academic and extracurricular contexts.
In general, I consider John a very promising applicant to your esteemed MBA program. I have the least reservation on his potential to succeed in his future educational as well as professional pursuit, and will be more than happy to discuss with you any matters pertaining to this reference letter.
Sincerely yours,
Jerry Smith, Ph.D. Professor
xx学校的朋友
您好!我是柳XX的导师xxx，柳XX同学是我最欣赏的学生之一。她最吸引我的是她的学习天赋与上进心，她是我见过的最聪明的学生，学习成绩卓著，人文科学与自然科学同样精通。更为难得的是她从不妄自尊大、自以为是，依旧刻苦地对待每一项学习任务，力争成为整个团队中的最佳。体现了她对自己和爱她的人负责的态度。
中国有句俗话：“梅花香自苦寒来”，经过她持之以恒地付出，她的语言表达能力、活动的组织能力、与人的`沟通能力、独立研究能力都非常突出，连续获得学校三好学生。特别是对英语，她具有天生的天赋与逐渐培养起的热情，据我所知，她的雅思成绩非常高，并获得许多中学生英语竞赛的奖项。能在英语国家学习，是她很久以前的梦想，为此她早已经作好了准备。我总是情不自禁的感慨：她说的英语与我说的汉语一样棒!
姜不光是我的学生，还是我的朋友。因为她的个性与理想深深的吸引了我。她总是无私地为团队奉献自己的聪明才智，主动为大家服务，任劳任怨，不计较个人得失，成为我们眼中的英雄。她又非常幽默乐观，用她微笑传递给大家一天的好心情。她又是一名体育健将，长跑、游泳、野外探险是她生活的一部分，从中她的意志得到了锻炼。我们交往非常愉快，她特别乐于与我一起分享她成长中的喜怒哀乐。还常常与我谈论电影艺术和旅游，美国的文化与风景深深地吸引了她，那里有她一个梦想。
真舍不得她离开祖国，但我尊重她的选择，相信她会学有所成，正如我相信我们的友谊天长地久一样。谢谢。
