Lydia...your reference ma dear! I will print it on letter headed paper in the morning, since I will see you in morning, just wanted you to know I'd done it, plus you know what I'm like- print it off tonight in case if you can! Mrs Jx
To whom it may concern,
I have taught Lydia English and literature over three academic years. She is an absolute pleasure of a student; exuberant, determined and talented.
The most impressive aspect of Lydia's nature, is her ability to grow- in confidence and ability. This can only be due to her receptive outlook and willingness to act on any beneficial and constructive criticism.
She has developed an ever growing flair for literature and has shown an inspiring passion for such texts as, Henry James' 'Turn of the Screw' and Shakespeare's 'Othello'. These challenging texts have been Lydia's turning point in her analytical literary skills- proving she thrives when offered a challenge and endeavors to deliver; she achieved her first A grade piece of coursework when studying 'Othello' and has continued to academically improve ever since.
This academic achievement has led Lydia to grow in confidence and determination- she is always humble and fighting to improve her ability. Her most recent challenge has been in the annual school production; 'Little Shop of Horrors'. I am currently directing the show and quickly realised that she had been hiding a wonderful singing voice and a more than capable acting ability from me for all of these years. Due to this, it was imperative to promote her to the lead role of Audrey. She has shown ultimate commitment (as always) and can be relied upon - from what I have seen - unconditionally.
Swaffham Hamonds High school, and my classroom, will be a poorer place without her and you would no less than gain from her attendance at your college.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs Alannah Johnson
