‘To Whom It May Concern,
Itis my pleasure to highly recommend Carrie Schultz to you. As her
University Supervisor, | have been very impressed with her overall professional
teaching performance.
Utilizing the local curriculum and standards, Carrie developed lesson plans to
engage her students. For example, she used hands-on and simulated labs to
create relevant learning opportunities that allowed students to work at their
own pace independently and in small groups. Moreover, assessments were
modified to ensure students were successful and accommodations were being,
followed.
In regard to technology, Carrie shared her detailed lesson plans through
planbook.com, used Gizmo simulated labs, and led students through engaging
slide shows on the SMARTBoard that contained relevant local and global
examples partnered with thought-provoking questions.
During her student teaching experience, Carrie attended staff meetings,
participated in professional development opportunities, and assisted with Yoga
Club. She also volunteered her time before and after school to help students
that were struggling with the material. All of her interactions with students,
parents, and faculty were professional and polite.
Carrie consistently reflected on her teaching and sought feedback to best meet
the needs of her students. I encourage you to consider her for a position at your
school. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to speak further about
Carrie.
Sincerely,
h a.
