To Whom It May Concern: 

It is with great pride that I write this letter of recommendation for my daughter Noora Alkhaja. Mothers will often praise their own children; however, praise alone doesn’t do justice to this bright young lady. As a middle child Noora learned from such a young age to be independent and to stand out. From the mere age of one Noora as a baby girl learned to stand on her own, walk on her own and even eat on her own. Being the middle child in the family also taught her to be assertive and determined in standing out which she did remarkably. Noora is a star as she shines bright with her determination and assertiveness.  

Noora is always learning and always creating. Besides excelling at school and presenting all her schoolwork and school projects with the utmost precision, she is also an artist and a lot of her artwork display technique that goes beyond her age. Outside of school she also embraces many talents. For instance, she started to show a great interest in crochet, and at the very young age of eleven she started her own crochet business crocheting some of the most unique patterns and figures and putting them up for sale. Noora is a determined young lady who never gives up. I still painfully remember how when she was about thirteen years old while practicing her horse riding she had a major accident. The horse galloped out of control throwing her headfirst on to the fence where she acquired major bruises and had to be rushed immediately to the hospital. Despite the major accident Noora still never gave up. It took some time as she persisted and persevered to get back up on the horse again but she did it and today she is quite the equestrian. Noora was selected to talk in the schools TED talks and I sat proudly listening to my daughter talk eloquently on the subject of the Importance of Compassion. She is kind and gentle, everyone big and small feels at ease around her. Today as a young lady she is full of wit, charm and capability making her the perfect friend and a splendid daughter.  

I am confident that Noora will achieve great things and will continue to thrive in an institution that encourages growth and innovation. A simple recommendation letter doesn’t even begin to portray all the marvel that my daughter Noora embodies. I truly admire the well-rounded young lady my daughter Noora has become and I look forwards to seeing more of her achieving great things. 

Best Regards,
