I am pleased to write a letter of recommendation for Mr. Rob Acker. Mr. Acker worked with the Denver Math Fellows for the 2016–17 school year. As a Denver Math Fellow he led small group mathematics instruction for 7th and 8th graders at Lake International Middle School in Denver Public School.
Rob is a very patient, lively, and kind teacher, who always gives his best and inspires you to do the same. In his class, I feel it's very enjoyable and rewarding. I learned a lot in his class, not only from the knowledge and skills I gained
During my time teaching with Robert, I witnessed a teacher full of tremendous creative energy, patience and passion for his profession. Teaching multi-level classes at the university level in rural China is an exceptionally difficult task
