<p>i sent 1 of my favorite teachers a request for a recommendation. he said:

I am currently in Ireland. If you'd like to come up to school and see me the week before students come back I could have them done sooner or you could give them to me when you come back from summer break.

wat exactly do I give him? i thought he just writes a letter himself. or r u talking about the common app stuff for teachers. but isnt that all blank and he can print online?</p>
<p>Many teachers writing recommendations would like a copy of the student’s transcript and resume. You might also want to remind them what your grades were in their class or of a special project you did in their class. If they need to tailor the rec for a specific school or if there’s something you really want them to mention, you need to let them know this as well.</p>
<p>You give him the CommonApp form or a form from your high school, and your resume/transcript. If he has to actually send them out (depends on your school’s guidelines), then you give him stamped, addressed envelopes.</p>
