Elise F. Hobson The College of New Jersey- Adjunet Supervisor Learning Disability Teacher Consultant 31 Temple Court Pennington, NI 08534 Hobsone@tenj.edu 609-712-7828 February 12, 2024 To Whom It May Concern: It is my genuine pleasure to recommend Cassidy Leonardis for an Elementary Special Education Teaching Position. I supervised Ms. Leonardis during her twelve week internship from September to December 2023 in a public school setting. She taught in the roles of general education and special education teacher in a resource room and in-class support setting. Throughout my observations and interactions with Ms. Leonardis, she was professional, willing to learn and put forth great effort to make sure her students succeeded. She showed grit to persevere and look for new ways to reach her students. She modeled her cooperating teachers teaching style and adapted the curriculum in order to show her skill set while meeting IEP goals and objectives. In closing, let me say I have no hesitation in recommending, Cassidy Leonardis, for an elementary teaching position in special education. I feel confident that she would be an asset to any school district, Please feel free to reach out to me. Sincerely, Elise F. Hobson M.Ed. TCNJ Adjunct Supervisor LDT-C; NCED
