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,
Dear Professor：
Miss xxx requested a letter of reference from me to support her application for graduate studies at your university. As her tutor when she prepared her project design for graduation, I am pleased to comply with her request.
I became acquainted with Miss xxx when I met her beautiful writing on her mathematic assignments and I remembered her name at once. When I taught her, she always sat on the left place behind the classroom, then I asked her why, she answered me that she likes to see all corners of classroom with smiles on her face. But I was astonished by her learning ability; she listened to my lesson with her thought, especially when I taught them some emphases and difficulties of the course, she always listened to me earnestly and recorded these difficulties on her note carefully, after class, she came to me and talked about these questions which included some principle of mathematics, I was impressed by her unique views about mathematics which reflected her thought and logic better than other students.
It was worthy to mention her learning ability on mathematics, for example, I didn’t finish my predication logic lesson because of limit time and just simply mentioned the concept, when I checked students’ assignments and found only she gave me prefect answer with deductive ways and her thought was very clear. Meanwhile I was gratified by her apperception ability and self-taught ability, she was a girl with nimbus and big potential. Besides her apply ability was also very strong. In her junior year, she took part in my teaching reform project which analyzed the result of improving mathematic teaching quality. She was so familiar with the model of mathematics that she suggested that we may choose AHP model instead of normal faintness judge way to carry on quantitative analysis, and I accepted her suggestion and finished together the paper of “arrangement analytical method applies on the classroom interaction teaching effective comment” which will be published in the future.
Miss xxx told me that she will apply for finance engineering which is a new field for her. I am glad to recommend this excellent girl who already possessed good quality and strong ability. I therefore lend her my enthusiastic support and would appreciate you favorable consideration of her application.
Sincerely yours
Dear Madama/Sir：
When Miss xxx requested a letter of reference from me to support her application for graduate studies at your esteemed university, as her teacher, I am pleased to write this letter for her.
I got to know xxx when she took part in National School of Mathematical Modeling Contest in 2005. Exactly, the time was one hour before the contest be over. At that time other groups already handed over the paper and program to person in charge and only her group around the computer amended something, I came to remind them of hurrying up and found that they were amending the map which I felt very good and also accorded with the paper requirement. When I asked her what she did, she said that she put several cities on the wrong places so she must correct them. She checked it again and again, before ten minutes the contest would be over and her group handed over the map. I was impressed by her clinging spirit which made her group win the second prize in the mathematical modeling contest.
The second time of meeting her was that I reviewed practices things in her class. When I saw her, she only one stayed in the class to consult materials, I asked her why other students couldn’t stay with her, she said that other students were cold and she let them go to back to have a rest. She already found out a new arithmetic but didn’t use it masterly, so she used three computers to check the results by changing parameters. The quantities of data were so large that I couldn’t believe she was able to finish the task, while I was surprised by her confidence and ability, she finished them on time. I was impressed by her spirit on academy again.
At her junior year, I taught her mathematic modeling course, she treated it very earnestly and she always finished each practical subject perfectly. Such as, after I gave her some key guidance, she classified the knowledge needed for study and listed the best methods to acquire knowledge on this field and finished it efficiently.
Recently I got to know she will apply for financing engineering and I was glad to tell her that if she connects theory with practice, she will exert mathematical character better. I strongly support her decision and hope my recommendation will receive your favorable consideration.
Sincerely yours
