<p>Ok, for applications that say use teachers in core subjects, does that mean no foreign language teachers?</p>
<p>Certain colleges want certain teachers. E.g. they’ll demand either an English or a History teacher for humanities. You’d have to check with individual colleges. Generally though, I wouldn’t recommend a foreign language rec unless you really excel, and the teacher knows you really well, and maybe it could be a SUPPLEMENTARY recommendation. i.e. not the main one.</p>
<p>Well the thing is, I’ve had my french teacher for 3/4 years in high school and I am FANTASTIC in French. So, he really is the most qualified to write about me.</p>
<p>Foreign language teacher recommendations are perfectly fine, and are just as good as any English or History teacher recommendations. Unless the college specifies otherwise, use your French teacher.</p>
