SPRING ARBOR UNIVERSI May 2016 Re: Kyle Roberts kyle is a bright, hardworking young man who took his very successful student teaching experience very seriously. His lessons were planned well and his presentations were interesting and memorable. He possesses a voice which was good for lecturing young people, but he used it very little for that purpose. It was used to present provocative questions to stimulate thoughtful thinking by the students. Classroom management was good. He created an atmosphere where students seemed free to ask and answer questions and assist others as needed. There was a great respect for all and by all kyle quickly and easily established rapport with fellow workers and students. His athletic abilities helped with rapport. He did some coaching and seemed to relate easily to all kyle’s background of Social Studies knowledge is remarkable—he made civics, and economics fit into the students’ world. It was not a subject they took, but lived. Some in the classes were of voting ‘age and appreciated another younger person’s thinking and caring for the Government. He encouraged them to think! By the end of his student teaching experience, Kyle was performing as a seasoned teacher! He will be a great asset to any school's staff.
