Dear Sir/Madam:

This letter of recommendation endorses Joseph Econmico’s candidacy as a Graduate student in

your academic institution. I’ve had the privilege to positively interact with Mr. Economico as his
lead cooperating teacher during his student teaching experience at BHS this past Spring semester.
Upon Mr. Economoico’s arrival to BHS, he was already prepared and willing to take on the tasks
of a secondary education teacher. Every morning, we’d collaborate on the day and lessons,
building into what would soon be his truly rewarding experience during his time with us. Mr.
Economico has a passion for teaching and his students that he interacts with on a daily basis.
Needless to say, our highschoolers were a little upset when he had to leave for his next
experience. This showed me that the positive impacts/relationships he made with our students
were what made him successful as a student teacher.

Furthermore, Mr. Economico delivered effective and authentic instruction everyday. Our students
were receptive to the hard work he put in with poster boards and other digital visual aids that not
only satisfied our general student body, but assisted our ENL students as well. Throughout the
weeks I witnessed a comfortable presence settling in with Mr. Economico. He has a take charge
kind of personality where he doesn’t want to waste time and just wants to learn and grow in this
profession. It’s evidently clear why he wants to take on his graduate studies immediately
following his undergraduate work.

It is my professional opinion that Joseph Ecnomico will continue to be a fantastic student and
future educator. I give my whole-hearted support for her candidacy. Kindly contact me if you
seek additional clarity on her credibility,

Respectfully,
