The purpose of this letter is to recommend Miss Brianna Wise for an elementary or
H middle school teaching position. She has classroom experience at the kindergarten,
HOLISTIC
third grade, and middle school level. Miss Wise has minors in the language arts and
integrated science with a 3.73 GPA. I have known Brianna since early 2015 and had
her as a student in language arts courses prior to her student teaching placement.

In addition to being a strong academic student, Brianna has been involved in service
activities at the university level; she has demonstrated the skill of giving back to the
community, something that she can model for her future students. Brianna served as
the Treasurer for the Kappa Delta Pi Student Organization and has been a member of
the National Society of Collegiate Scholars for four years. Interestingly, Brianna also
mentored international students as they became acclimated to US culture.

Miss Brianna Wise has done very well in the B.S. in Elementary Education, I highly
recommend her for a teaching position. I am confident she will develop positive
relationships with colleagues, students, and parents. Feel free to contact me for further
information.

Sincerely,

Amy Kavanaugh, Ed.D.
