To Whom It May Concern,
I highly recommend Kent Cox for a teaching position. He was a student teacher for my
grade 9 Geography class for four weeks during October and November of this year.
Kent is ready to take on a full time position as he demonstrated professionalism in his
planning, preparations and in the front of the class. Most importantly, the students
connected with him and responded positively to his teaching.
Kent was completely responsible for all aspects of the classroom: from planning his
own lessons to meet the curriculum, to the setting up of the classroom and designing
assessments of the learning that took place. During his time in my class he
demonstrated strong communication skills, written and verbal, he was reliable and
technologically literate.
Kent’s lesson plans were thoroughly drawn up and thoughtfully constructed.
Individual student needs were considered along with a diversity of approaches to
delivering the curriculum. He used exit cards as an assessment for student learning and
he delivered and graded a test as an assessment of student learning.
Kent brought an enthusiastic and positive attitude to the profession and the classroom.
He was very good at pointing out the positive behaviors in the class as they happened
and the class would always respond with more of the same. Kent was not just the
students’ teacher but he became their cheerleader, always urging students to do their
best.
Again, I highly recommend Kent for a teaching position. If you have any questions in
regards to his placement with me please contact me via the contact information listed
above.
Sincerely,
David Gallant
