Mr.

Ryan Walsh
Letter of Recommendation
March 3, 2015

To whom it may concern:

It is my pleasure to recommend Mr. Ryan Walsh as a prospective candidate for
employment as a secondary level teacher. I have known Ryan since November 2014 as a
student-teacher in my classes, and I can genuinely say that he would be a tremendous
asset to any district.
The list of positive qualities is numerous. Ryan, first and foremost, is an outstanding
person. He cares about the kids and it shows in his classroom demeanor, as he is always
willing to go the extra mile when helping a student. Second, he does an outstanding job
in trying to relate the material to everyones understanding. Ryan explains the material in
different ways which makes it easier for all students comprehension. Furthermore, he is
very flexible in his student-teaching responsibility, willing to adjust lessons
and step in at a moments notice. The insights that he provides during class deepens a
students understanding, and he is fair in his dealings with discipline.
Personally, Ryan is very thoughtful and conscientious in planning lessons, and works
well with colleagues in developing insightful, challenging material. It can be easily
noticed that his prior student-teaching experiences have prepared him well, and his
teaching portfolio has been supplemented in preparation for moving on the next level.
I can honestly say that Mr. Ryan Walsh is an outstanding individual and impressive
candidate for gaining employment into any district. If you have any further questions,
feel free to contact me at any time.

Sincerely,

David A. Kosa
