Question about Recommendation

<p>Hi, I hope someone could help me.</p>

<p>I am a rising senior and during the summer I decided to take 4 college class. Out of those 4 class I had the same teacher twice. He was my English teacher. I want to ask him for a recommendation for college. I have not decide on a college yet, but I wanted to ask him soon because I might not see him again when the summer end . How should I approach him and what should I give him?</p>

<p>I got an A in class and still have the graded papers.</p>

<p>I am clueless about asking for recommendation letter.</p>

<p>Just straight up ask him. If he is really willing, he would give you his email and or number to stay in contact.</p>

<p>Typically, colleges ask for recs form a high school teacher. Typically, college profs don’t have experience in the format and details to provide- and, can’t speak to anything about you except your performance in that class. So, I hope any rec from a summer school prof is just an extra.</p>

<p>I just thought that having a recommendation from a college prof would be better than a high school teacher. :/</p>

<p>Not better. Not what most colleges state they want. </p>

<p>It does not say that "Not what most colleges state they want. "</p>

<p>P.S my high school does block schedule and I usually only know my high school teacher for 2 9 weeks.</p>

<p>You go to the colleges’ own sites and see what they ask for. The block question is one your GC can probably advise on. Many kids do have a teacher for repeat classes, over time. Good luck.</p>
