To Whom It May Concern: I am very proud to recommend Jacob Bennett for consideration of your scholarship. I taught Jacob in my AP Physics 1 class during the 2021-22 school year and he was one of my top students in the class. While I will let his academic record speak for itself, I would like to focus on a few characteristics that Jacob exhibits that I believe will make him successful at your school. These characteristics are his friendly, calm demeanor and his mature communication. With only having a class of eight students in AP Physics 1 last year with us being a new school, I got to know Jacob quickly. Jacob was one of the couple of students that participated regularly answering the questions in class instead of being shy. He clearly had a confidence with the physics content early on that served him well to perform academically well in the class. I enjoyed observing Jacob regularly work with his peers to help them understand the content when they struggled. He is well respected as he is very friendly and positive with his peers in supporting them through the challenges not only AP Physics was for many, but I could listen to him working through AP Calculus or other classes with them too. He never turned anyone away when they had a question and accepted if he made a mistake on a problem. I was also impressed that Jacob was most of the time very calm. While I know he did get frustrated with some topics on momentum and rotation during second semester, he continued to have an even-tempered attitude toward those challenges and again a confidence that he could overcome the struggles and excel. I believe Jacob could continue to improve in accepting new challenges that get him outside his comfort zone, so he continues to develop his coping skills through those struggles and work through them appropriately. As stated earlier, Jacob participated regularly in class answering questions and being involved in class discussions. Jacob is very well-spoken and speaks well with both peers and teachers. He is respectful to his teachers, but also mature to either open or continue conversations with adults. I would see Jacob at the county recreation center where he worked when I had events with my family, and he was always open to talk for a few minutes instead of going into his phone or finding a reason to ignore me. Jacob also does a very good job with his written communication seen through his free response answers to multiple AP Physics questions. His ability to be clear, concise, and analytical in his scientific writing to explain physics phenomena was often used as an exemplar in the class. I believe Jacob will use his communication skills to not only support his work in class, but to get him involved in the college community beyond the classroom. I am again proud to recommend Jacob Bennett.
