Sus apuntes, exámenes y actividades diarias, todas fueron elaboradas de una manera extensiva
y dedicada llegando a agotar hasta la última esquina de papel para registrar sus respuestas.

Su nivel académico en la materia de Español fue tan alto que sus respuestas excedieron los
criterios de evaluación de la rúbrica a ser aplicada.

Hay una palabra en inglés que se usa para describir una obra que tenga un acabado perfecto,
sin fallas. "Pristine"
Puedo decir que el desempeño de Donatella en la materia de español fue "Pristine"

Me despido asegurándole la certeza de mi mayor estima y consideración.

Dear Mr. Cardenas,

Thank you for your e-mail regarding Nikolas. We appreciate the feedback.

In our experience at Balboa it is quite extraordinary to get a personal e-mail with feedback like this from
a teacher. For us it underscores your own dedication to teaching excellence. My wife and I have
remarked to ourselves over the course of the year how much we appreciate your challenging Nikolas.
We recognize that he is on the high end of the aptitude curve and so is apt to do well. However, we are
grateful that you pushed him in a way to keep him engaged and interested, testing his own limits. You
may not realize this but he worked harder in your class than any other class this year. It has been a
pleasure for us to hear from him about his assignments.

Thank you. Keep up the good work and have an enjoyable break!

Best wishes,

Jeff & Kristin
