I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend my previous co worker, Garrett Keller, for any position or opportunity that involves working with children. I have witnessed his exceptional skills and qualities firsthand during our time working together. Garrett possesses a natural talent for connecting with children. His ability to relate to them on their level and create a comfortable, nurturing environment is truly remarkable. His patience, understanding, and genuine care make him an ideal candidate for any role involving childcare or mentorship. I have seen him communciate with parents about their childrens progress with understanding of their current position as well as realistic goals for the future. I was impressed with his work then and I am certain he has continued to improve.

It was a pleasure to work with Garrett during our studies at National University, as he was not only knowledgeable and experienced with teaching, but also down-to-earth and easy to work with. He is very receptive to ideas and feedback while providing an insightful perspective on any collaborative project he is a part of. Garrett is very punctual and is not afraid to take the initiative on any upcoming tasks. Garrett also has a thorough understanding of Social and Emotional Learning strategies and demonstrates this in his thoughtful instructional methodology. Because of his knowledge of SEL core competencies and SEL applied in a learning environment, I am confident in his ability to engage students in lessons as well as his kindness that easily fosters relationship building in the classroom.
