To whom it may concern:

It is with great pleasure that I write to recommend Marlene Manzano to your university or institution. She
is a unique student and has been a pleasure to have in my 11th grade AP U.S. History course and as a
member of the Academy of Finance. Marlene is filled with enthusiasm and curiosity during class. She is
passionate when it comes to discussions and allows her message to be heard. I was extremely proud of her
growth and hard work during the year.
When thinking about Marlene and her abilities as a student, the one thing that keeps coming to mind is her
dedication, determination, and inquisitiveness. Marlene was engaged in class and worked diligently to
accomplish tasks. She stays motivated and focused. She is an independent learner, which makes her an
excellent leader and student. She is good at time management. She participated with a positive attitude in
class and in extracurricular activities, such as the Foshay Band Historian and Advertising Team, and Unicef
Club. She also worked well with others and in difficult situations.
Marlene is someone I highly recommend. I look forward to seeing where her goals and aspirations take her.
She is a natural leader, writer, thinker, and intrinsically motivated. Marlene will be a great benefit to your
institution.
If you have any questions or concerns in regards to Marlene Manzano, please feel free to contact me via
email at mrjohnsonaof@gmail.com or call (323) 373-2700.
Sincerely,

Johnson John
