Dear Mr Li,
I am writing to recommend my classmate, Wang Hao, as the new monitor of our class. We believe he has all the qualities to be an excellent leader.
Wang Hao is a responsible and helpful person. He always puts the class’s interests first and is willing to offer his time to help others. For example, he spends a lot of his free time helping struggling students with their schoolwork after class. What’s more, he is a true team player. He not only knows how to express his ideas clearly but is also good at listening to others’ opinions.
Besides his great personalities, Wang Hao is very creative and confident. Recently, he came up with a wonderful plan for our class’s New Year’s party, which made the event a great success. Moreover, he has excellent problem-solving skills. When we faced a disagreement about the class activity last week, he stayed calm and found a solution that satisfied everyone.
We hope that you consider Wang Hao for this position. We are sure that he will be a great monitor and make our class better.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Shan
