To Whom It May Concern:
Thighly recommend Kristina Arkhipova for a teaching position in your school division. I have
had the privilege to know and work with Kristina during the fall 2016 semester in the EDUC 425
Methods: Math Instruction course which I taught here at Lynchburg College.
Kristina demonstrated collaboration skills as well as the ability to think and work independently.
She also displayed high levels of self-confidence, motivation, and determination throughout the
Math course and did not hesitate to ask for clarification if/as needed. Kristina was a leader in
group situations and always encouraged and recognized the work of others within her group as
she led them through Math activities. Her passion for learning and teaching were evident not
only in her assignments and active class participation but also in her positive demeanor.
In addition, Kristina has been an active member of Phi Kappa Phi and Kappa Delta Pi while
successfully balancing her academic workload. Her strong passion for educating young children
resulted in volunteer experiences at Perrymont Elementary School and one-on-one tutoring for a
first grade student at Robert S. Payne Elementary School. Her field and student teaching
experiences also allowed her to be immersed in numerous school and community events at
Rustburg Elementary School, Rustburg Middle School, Boonsboro Elementary School, and
Altavista Elementary School,
In summary, I believe Kristina’s education and field/student teaching experiences make her a
highly qualified candidate for the position which she is seeking in your organization. I hope you
will give her application the utmost consideration, and I will be glad to provide any additional
information as needed.
Sincerely,
