To Whom It May Concern：

It is my great pleasure to recommend ( )to you, as she was one of my finest students in our department.

( )began attending my English classes in the Department of International Trade University in 1992 and graduated in spring of 1996. Though it has been over eight years since I last saw her, the deep impression she made on me has not faded in the least . She is very intelligent, honest, creative, articulate, adaptive person. Her high academic achievement speaks for itself: she consistently scored in the top 5 in class.

I am certain that Miss Zhang would make great contributions to your department, and I strongly recommend her to you. Please do not hesitate to inquire further if I can be of help to you.

Sincerely,

The students’ names are in brackets
