To whom it may concern,
I have known Clarisen Lacuata for 4 years, first meeting her when I brought her onboard
to work for me as a tutor at After School Heroes, llc, an Enrichment center in which Ive
managed and directed at in Honolulu, Hawaii.
I highly recommend Clarisen to work for any educational setting. Her commitment to
being an effective, caring teacher was evident in her work and she always sought out
ways to improve. Her students enjoyed working with her, often personally requesting to
be paired with her for their sessions. She effortlessly took students in from different
cultures, social-economic backgrounds, and academic levels, performing equally well
with gifted students who needed to be challenged as with ESLL students who do not
speak or understand the classroom's language at all. With her ESLL students, she
adapted different methodologies into her lessons, such as drawing pictures, using
music, taking advantage of online video resources, and body movement to help her
students understand and enjoy learning English.
Clarisen was a huge asset to our team, making a positive difference in the dynamic of
the work space for the students and her peers. I trusted Clarisen to be the acting
supervisor of the classroom on my behalf when I was unable to attend. Her roles
included lesson planning, tutoring, and progress reporting, but she has consistently
volunteered her time to do more, such as following up with student's parents and
teachers, mentoring other tutors, and ensuring lesson plans were correctly executed.
For the reasons above, I firmly believe that Clarisen would be an amazing fit for the
kindergarten school teacher position at Crane School District.
Should you have any questions, please contact me anytime.
Best regards,
