[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As annoying as the position is, you don't want a reluctant rec. [/quote] I’m a high school teacher. You don’t want this teacher’s recommendation. I write plenty of recommendations for students with Bs and Cs. Students’ achievements sometimes aren’t reflected in a letter grade, and I’m able to articulate that. Sometimes I highlight work ethic, or growth, or perseverance. Honesty, I think some of my best letters are the ones that highlight something other than straight As. If this teacher isn’t willing, however, don’t push it. Head to other teachers. I recommend a resume or letter that tells the other teacher what your child got out of that class. It personalizes the class for the teacher and provides a glimpse at your child that the teacher may not have had the opportunity to see. [/quote]
