A friend of yours is applying for a job as a sports instructor for teenagers in a

summer school in Australia. He is asking you to write a recommendation letter


to the principal of the school. In your letter, you should say:
how long you have known him for
what are his qualifications
why he is suitable for the position
To whom it may concern,
I am writing to you on behalf of my friend, Elliot Carter, who recently sent you
an application and aspires to be a part of your team this summer. It would be
my pleasure to give you some background information on him and explain why
I feel he would be a wonderful addition to your faculty.
Personally, I have known Elliot for the better part of seven years as we studied
Adolescent Education together at Brent University in Canberra. In addition to
graduating with distinction, Elliot spent each of his university summers
volunteering at various schools similar to your own. His popularity with the
students garnered him the favorite teacher award at each of those schools.
Following this experience, he was offered the title of Academic Director at the
prestigious Youth Melbourne Academy of Leaders, which he has held to this day.
He has informed me that he is eager to take on a new challenge, hence his
enthusiasm regarding working at your institution.
I hope this letter encourages you to add Elliot to your roster of teachers. With
all of his experiences and qualifications, I have no doubt he will bring a lot of
talent to you.
Sincerely,
Izadi
