Letters of Recommendation
To whom it may concern;
This letter is to recommend Brianna Pantelis for acceptance into your university.
Brianna’s persistence, ability to listen with understanding and empathy, and her aptitude for
working interdependently will make her a wonderful addition to your collegiate program.
I have had the privilege of having Brianna as a student in both math and acting classes
throughout the years.. During this time Brianna has demonstrated key characteristics that will
make her a successful college student. These characteristics including persistence, listening with
understanding and empathy, and working interdependently will make her a dynamic student.
Brianna is always working hard to support her fellow students for whatever she is
working on. In the Acting Classes she has taken any job or challenge enthusiastically, including
mentoring younger students and taking on roles with little preparation because she was needed.
Brianna is always very willing to work with other students and take on any task that is asked of
her. She listens to what others suggest and takes the best suggestions to heart for her
performance. There is never a suggestion that she doesn’t listen to and consider. As my math
student Brianna always asks good questions and consistently works with other students to figure
out what mistakes she is making and helping others to do the same. While she helps others she
asks them where they had issues and does her best to help them gain a better understanding.
When she is getting help she listens closely and this helps her better process the material. This
ability to work interdependently and listen with understanding and empathy will take Brianna
far.
One of Brianna’s biggest strengths is her ability to be persistent. On the stage she has
been diligent during rehearsals and in her memorization of lines to make sure she is one of the
best prepared actors in the class. It is always obvious that she has put a lot of work into her
performance. Brianna brings this persistent attitude to her preparation in math as well. In the
math classroom she is not afraid to work on a problem several times until she gains a better
understanding of the material. She refuses to give up on the work and will retake and rework
things until she is satisfied with her work. This ability to persevere demonstrates that she will
always be a very good worker who will not give up.
All of these abilities will help to make Brianna a successful college student. I fully
recommend Brianna Pantelis for acceptance into your university.
