[quote=Anonymous]I've written hundreds of letters of recommendations for students over my career. With very few exceptions, I show the student the letter in advance and ask if there is anything they would like changed. And with very few exceptions, the students have been delighted with the letter as written. The reason that I show them the letter is to make sure that I have adequately covered what they believe needed to be covered in the letter. A couple of times I have left something, like a sport or club. I've never been asked to make real substantive changes. Waiving the right to read the letter has nothing to do with the teacher giving the student the opportunity to read the letter in advance.[/quote]
