To whom it may concern,

I am writing this letter on behalf of Person you are recommending. I have had the pleasure
of knowing name for insert number years. Person’s name has asked me to write a general
recommendation letter for him/her to use when any employer asks for recommendations.

I met Person’s name when he/she took a class I was teaching/worked for me/joined a
group/club that I led. After telling where the two of you met, go on to list the skills you
found to be important when you worked together. Make sure to point out two to three major
strengths of the person. If you taught this person, be sure to mention their high grades, good
attendance and their attention to detail during certain projects, etc. If they worked for you,
it is a good idea to also mention attendance as well as their ability to work on projects
alone or with others. If the person was a part of your organization or club, be sure to write
about their willingness to help, any fundraisers or any event they helped to set up, and their
ability to work with many personalities to reach the same basic goal.

Use this paragraph to give examples from the points mentioned above. You can rate them
as a student or employee. One example per point listed above is plenty. Also, use this
paragraph to add information that you believe would be important for an employer to know.

To conclude, I highly recommend Person’s name. From my past experience with Person’s
name, I believe he/she will be a valuable part of your team.

Yours faithfully,
