[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a new HS teacher and I'll probably be getting these requests sooner or later. How do you tactfully refuse to write a recommendation letter if you don't have anything great to say, or worse, if you have negative things to say and the student lacks enough self-awareness to realize that and asks you anyway?[/quote] [i]I'm sorry but I cannot in good faith write a letter of recommendation for you.[/i] Repeat as necessary. If the student insists because the application says the letter must be from xxx subject, then I suggest a prior year teacher.[/quote]
