October 14, 2011 To Whom It May Concern, I am pleased to endorse Lindsay Adams for a teaching position. Lindsay has completed part of her student teaching experience in my fifth grade classroom at Tallwood Elementary School. She established and maintained personal connections with each student. Lindsay is extremely organized and worked diligently to ensure the success of all students, including special education students. Lindsay is goal-oriented with high expectations for herself and the students. She did everything that was expected of her with confidence. Lindsay was vigilant when it came to providing the students with the maximum amount of opportunities for learning. She collaborated with the rest of the fifth grade team for Science and Language Arts lessons. Our team incorporated many of her ideas in both areas. Lindsay would contribute to the success of any school. She brings with her knowledge of content, best practice, and classroom management. Her rapport with students, parents, and administration is excellent. She has my highest recommendation. Sincerely, Mary J. Bowen Tallwood Elementary School
