As a Field Instructor/Lecturer at the University of Michigan, I have worked with Miss. Eila West for the last nine months. During that time I have been able to observe her teaching in a kindergarten classroom. Additionally, I have seen Eila work with her cohort members on various projects, and have observed Eilas interactions with others in our seminar meetings and with a variety of teaching colleagues. Eila consistently shows clarity and accuracy in effectively communicating directions and procedures during classroom instruction. Her lesson plans reflect knowledge of the subject being taught and understanding of district instructional guidelines. Her probing questioning techniques require students to move beyond simple responses toward a broader understanding of topics. Eilas classroom management techniques encourage respect for all students. By keeping the instruction engaging, she is able to avert many disciplinary problems. Eila relates well to all students. She is consistent in her expectations and holds high standards for all. Eila is reflective about feedback given to her by instructors, her classroom teacher and Field Instructor. She effectively uses feedback to structure new teaching/learning experiences. Eila maintains professional conduct in preparedness, attendance, and protects the privacy of her students. Without hesitation, I can recommend Eila West for an elementary teaching position. It has been a pleasure to work with her over the last two semesters.. Sincerely,
Joyce Griffiths Field Instructor/Lecturer University of Michigan
