I’m writing a letter of recommendation today in regards to one of my students Natalie Papa who is a junior at Lincoln way East High School located in Frankfort, Illinois.

I have been working with Natalie for over six years now and have watched her become a better player each and every year.    During lessons we will focus on one main part of her swing and she will spend hours on trying to improve on the things we talked about.    She is long off the tee and I expect her to gain even more distance in the next couple years.    We focus on putting and wedges about 60% percent of her lesson time and she spends even more time while she practices and it’s starting to show some big improvements.    We also spend a lot of time on the golf course going over situations that will occur during rounds and hitting different shots from many locations.

Natalie is the kind of person that everyone wants to be around because she is always smiling and having fun while working on her game and respects the other players around her.    She has parents who want to give her the best opportunity to become better and they don’t push her and let coaches do their jobs.    

I highly recommend Natalie for any college any college program as I have personally worked with over 150 college players and I know Natalie has what it takes to succeed.    She will make a huge impact on any college team.   Please contact me if you need any information on Natalie at johnplatt62@hotmail.com.

To Whom It May Concern,

It is with great honor that I write a letter of recommendation for Natalie Papa.  I have had the privilege to be Natalie’s first golf instructor when she started the game around five years old.  Since a very early age, Natalie has always shown her exceptional character and dedication to the game of golf.  I knew then that Natalie would be a talented golfer.  There was not a doubt in my mind she would work hard and go above and beyond what it would take to play at the college level.  Over the past ten years, she has done just that.

Natalie will push herself to get better every season while maintaining a positive outlook on everything.  This is something I love about Natalie.  She can bounce back from anything and will not let any negative thoughts creep in.  What also stands out about Natalie is her ability to get along and work together with others.  She is always the first to encourage her teammates and friends.  She is a true definition of a good teammate that any coach would be lucky to have.  She is a positive role model in every way which I why she is my first pick when I need an assistant to help at my junior golf camps.  I can trust Natalie with any position I give her.  Her knowledge of the golf swing and enthusiastic personality always inspires my other junior golfers and everyone who plays with her.

I am confident you will not regret choosing Natalie to play for you.  She is a skilled player that every coach would want to have on their team.   Not only will Natalie bring in low scores, she will be kind of person to keep everyone smiling and motivated on the team.

Sincerely,
