Hello! My name is Jill W, I went to VCU and received my masters in Elementary Education. I have worked in the Fair Fax County Schools with children with special needs. I have also worked as a life skills coach helping individuals with special needs build their independence. I love kids and I am a hard worker.

I am writing this recommendation in regards to Jill for an application for a summer program employment in Care.com. I have had the pleasure of getting to know Jill over the past year as a student in my Math 361, Math 303, and Math 362 courses. I have gotten to know Jill as a student and as a person. As a student, Jill has excellent work ethics and takes her academic success very seriously. I have seen her spend time working on problems alone and with a group. She does not give up at any time and works through until she understands the problems at many different levels. Her high grades are a tribute to her impeccable work ethic and ability. It doesn't matter the time or day of the week, Jill puts effort into all that she does. She is able to share her ideas with others through pictures and words. Her grades were some of the highest in the class. She has the drive to complete any task she puts her mind. In addition to having firsthand knowledge of Jill's academic commitment, I am also familiar with her educational goals, as well as the challenges she faces in changing her career goal to become a teacher. Jill and I have spoken about her career change from her prior degree to that of education. She knows where her future lies, and it is in helping others to enjoy learning as she does. I cannot think of someone more deserving, and I wholeheartedly support Jill's application for this program. As a person, Jill is a kind, caring friendly individual. She takes her time to share her ideas with others and listen to theirs. She is never unkind or intolerant of other students in any portion of the class. She spends her time working with others and making sure that everyone including herself is successful. Jill has the ability to work with others through being a leader and a team player. She greets me and her fellow classmates each day with a warm welcome and a cheerful good bye. I recommend Jill with absolutely no reservations for any opportunity she sets her mind to doing. I think you will be getting an employee one of the best students at VCU. She is hard working and dedicated to everything she sets her mind. If I can be of any further help please don't hesitate to contact me.
