October 22, 2022 To Whom It May Concern: David Garcia-Ramos is a high-achieving student who works very hard to meet his goals. He is truly an amazing young man, whose most notable academic strengths are natural intelligence, work ethic, and determination. He works very hard to complete all assignments and is never afraid to ask questions about problems or assignments that he is struggling with. David is an amazing individual who will rise to greatness and would be a worthy recipient of your scholarship. I had the distinct pleasure of teaching David in Multivariable Calculus and Differential Equations during his senior year of high school. In my opinion, David had the perfect combination of natural intelligence, determination, and work ethic. He was never afraid to speak up and ask for clarification or further explanation of a concept, whether during class or in my tutoring sessions. My students who rely solely on brilliance of mind to obtain high grades scare me because everyone has a “brick wall” moment at some point in their education. How will these students react in that situation? David, on the other hand, had the mental capacity to understand my advanced courses but still knew when to work hard to achieve high grades. He has arrived at university with a disciplined work ethic and a very large store of mathematical knowledge and skills. The courses David took with me respectively correspond very closely to the Calculus III and Differential Equations I courses offered at most major universities. By taking these courses as a senior in high school, David took a risk for the sake of learning, rather than taking the easy way out to bolster his GPA. With an anticipated major in engineering, he needed a strong mathematics background from high school and these courses will certainly gave him that. Please keep all of this in mind as you make those tough scholarship award decisions. David is also dedicated to serving his community and takes every opportunity he can to do so. Whether he was mentoring young men in his Boy Scout troop or helping underprivileged children shop for Christmas gifts, David poured his heart and soul into his community service work during high school. I am certain that he has taken this service-minded mentality with him to college this year. In closing, I strongly recommend that David Garcia-Ramos be awarded a Georgia Engineering Foundation scholarship. Sincerely, James Clinton Stockton, Ed.D. Mathematics Teacher Kennesaw Mountain High School
