To whom it may concern:
It is with great pleasure that Ito recommend David Lueck for a position at
your institution.
I have known Davidprofessionally for over 6 years.Westarted our teaching careers
together at the Pike FreshmanCenterwhere Iwas the Newcomersand EL Teacher
until myrecent promotion. Davidimmediately impressed me with his dedication to
teaching, his students, and his colleagues. He is goal oriented, uses effective
strategies, and is a good source for other teachers when they have questions.
I liketo come in early to work but David always arrived ahead of me and
would stay late. Heis well prepared and wants to be availablein case students stop
by with questions. MyEL students always felt comfortable enoughto come to him if
they did not understand the material.
He sets high standards and expectations but at the same time provides the
students with the tools and skills necessary to reach those expectations.
He really impressed me as he made sure to modifyand adapt his instruction to the
needs of newly arrived ELstudents or of students who mighthave been in theUSA
for a while but still needed that extra help.
David is a team player. We often collaborated on adaptingtests and
assignments, not just for Elstudents, but also for students who were perhaps at a
different competency level. David firmly believes everyone can learn and succeed.
David is a well-traveled educator and in today's globaleconomy, hismany
experiences he brings into the classroom, are ofgreatvalue to the students and the
school. For David, education is much more than just teaching the requiredmath
course. Heuses a holistic approach and has the ability to connect his lessons to the
world we live in and build on the background knowledge ofthe students and thus
connect with them.
I am excited about this possible opportunity for David and I am confident he
will not disappoint. Please do not hesitate to contact me at mieke-
lambrecht kendrick@nobl.kl2.in.us or at 317-776-7792 ifyou have any questions.
Sincerely,
Mieke Lambrecht-Kendrick
