Dear [Admissions Committee/ Hiring Manager/ Scholarship Committee],

I am excited to write this letter of recommendation for Tianao Wang, a student who stood out as one of the top 10% performers in my classes. Having taught Tianao in both Discrete Mathematics and Computer Networking, I can confidently say that he is an exceptional student who is well-suited for admission to your esteemed institution.

Tianao’s outstanding academic performance in both courses placed him in the top 10% of the class, with a grade of 92 in Discrete Mathematics and a grade of 91 in Computer Networking. His coursework projects were also exemplary. In Discrete Mathematics, Tianao’s exceptional understanding of the course material was evident through his implementation of Dijkstra Algorithm and Cryptography, surpassing the course requirements. Moreover, he even anonymously chatted with a like-minded friend and used the RSA encryption technique to add him as a contact. Similarly, in Computer Networking, his project exceeded the basic requirements with the implementation of fast recovery congestion control. Tianao also provided valuable feedback to the teaching assistant to resolve issues with some of the provided test cases, resulting in a full score.

Furthermore, Tianao’s active participation in class discussions and his thoughtful analysis of complex topics stood out. He was not only engaged during class, but also showed a strong willingness to learn outside of the classroom by regularly asking thought-provoking questions and engaging in meaningful discussions.

Tianao’s ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with his peers and instructors was also impressive. Whenever he encountered obstacles in his coursework or projects, he was proactive in seeking help and communicating his concerns. His commitment to timely communication made him a valuable team member and contributor to the class as a whole.

Beyond his academic achievements, Tianao was an exceptional leader and problem solver in our department. He serves as the class monitor, frequently taking on the responsibility of coordinating communication between faculty and students. His strong interpersonal skills and positive attitude were invaluable in fostering a collaborative and productive learning environment. He also demonstrated exceptional organizational and time-management skills, balancing his academic workload with extracurricular activities and community service.

In sum, I strongly recommend Tianao Wang for admission to your institution. His academic achievements, inquisitive mindset, and strong work ethic demonstrate his potential for success in higher education. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require further information.

Sincerely,
Ming Tang
