To Whom it May Concern,

This letter is my personal recommendation for David Chung. He worked during the

school year 2008-2009 at Our World Neighborhood Charter School as one of two roving

classroom assistants. His position required him to be flexible and resourceful, as he

moved from class to class as needs required. He prepared and implemented lessons and

worked alongside teachers with small groups in all areas of the curriculum.

In addition, he was assigned daily lunchroom/recess responsibilities, state examination

proctoring, and coverage for teachers who were taking part in professional development

activities. He developed a template script and process with which he established and

maintained daily morning announcements by fifth graders which were broadcast

throughout the school.

In all of these circumstances, David proved to be reliable and responsible. He made the

effort to get to know the children and worked on developing strategies for managing

large groups of children in cooperation with other teachers and assistants. He sought

consultation with me, in my role as curriculum developer, and consistently made efforts

to improve his relationships with the children and staff, and to increase his competence

and confidence as a teacher. He approached challenges with creativity and good will.

David took on many extra responsibilities. He identified problems with waste andcreated a protocol for school-wide recycling in collaboration with other staff members.

He worked with the technology department to create a protocol for energy efficiency.

He initiated practices that reduced food waste considerably in the lunchroom. These

projects, which were initiated due to his concern and interest, helped inspire increased

environmental awareness on the part of staff and students alike.

I highly recommend David for employment. He has the energy and commitment to

make a substantial contribution to any school fortunate enough to have him.

Thank you,

Dorothy Bukantz
