He assisted teachers and worked with students in grades 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6. He was versatile and dealt with students in each grade level appropriately. His communication skills made the lessons suitable for the age of the student. It was also evident that he had concern for the needs of his students and worked hand-in-hand with the teachers to evaluate students' progress and determine continuing teaching strategies and interventions. After his year in AmeriCorps at Hoover Bob proved his commitment to the needs of students by continuing his service through Vista. He worked with at-risk high school students for two years in Tucson, Arizona. I wrote a letter of recommendation for him when he made the decision to work with Vista in Arizona. My regard for him as a dedicated and caring person continues. I believe Bob would be an excellent choice to work with high school students. His own background growing up in aloes-income area of Rockford, Illinois, would probably give him some insights for working with troubled students. His bachelor and masters degrees give him an educational background that will enhance his ability to deal academically with the students. I strongly recommend Bob.

As AmeriCorps Program Director for the Partners in Learning Program, I observed Robert's performance and dedication to the ideals of community service. Robert helped to further our partnership in the school system by being dependable, consistent and task-oriented while doing his service hours. Robert's duties at Hoover consisted of mentoring and tutoring children in the Learning Center with the guidance and support of classroom teachers. Through this program, Robert helped to develop, facilitate and evaluate programs for at-risk children and families. During his term of service, Robert was also required to complete a portfolio to document his performance in addition to attending monthly training sessions on appropriate topics. Robert consistently volunteered for other service projects, took on additional responsibilities and provided positive feedback. Through his service, Robert improved the lives of the at-risk student population with whom he worked. Please consider Robert as a worthy candidate for employment. ~Iis evaluations and performance were rated above average and he completed his service hours in a timely manner.
