Recommendation Letter

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to recommend that Rachel Marie Heitmann be accepted into the Universidad
de Salamanca Program. I had Ms. Heitmann in my Spanish 216 course, Spring 2017.

Ms. Heitmann is a creative, intelligent and dedicated student who has superior
written and verbal communication skills in Spanish. She functions well as a team leader
when required, and she also works effectively as a team member.

On the interpersonal side, Rachel has a natural curiosity about the world we live in.
She is always eager to learn about other cultures and customs, and is respectful of various
worldviews. Many times she has expressed to me an interest in traveling and seeing some
of the sites that we've studied in class, and that she has researched on her own. When she
told me about the Universidad de Salamanca Program, I was pleased to write a
recommendation letter for her because I know she will be great addition to your group and
that she will take advantage of all the opportunities that the program provides.

I am confident that Julie will show excellent performance in Universidad de

Salamanca Program.
