March 23, 2017 To whom it may concern: It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Allison Rainwater. Allison has been providing piano lessons to my nine year old daughter for the past year. She is friendly, energetic, professional, and dependable. Her love for music and enthusiasm for teaching children is apparent from the moment you meet her. My daughter has progressed rapidly with Allison’s guidance. She has motivated my daughter to practice the piano regularly to master each song, and work towards her goals. Allison’s enthusiasm and commitment is not limited to music. She is passionate about her volunteer work with children in Haiti as well as locally, raising money for CCMC by participating in HUSKYTHON. She truly is a wonderful role model for my daughter, and all the children she teaches. The school system that ultimately hires Allison will be very fortunate as she will be a great asset to the music program. Sincerely, Nicole Russo (860) 977-5289
