Dear Prof. Robinson,
As one of your students, I am writing to ask for your kind assistance. I wish to enroll in a Religious Studies course at Stanford University, for which I am required to provide a letter of recommendation.
As a senior professor in this field, one of my most respected college teachers, and a person who knows me very well, you are the most suitable referee for me. As you know, I have laid a solid foundation in religious studies. I would be grateful if, in the letter, you could confirm that I have adequate qualifications to do the course.
Would you be so kind as to give a brief introduction of my academic performance during my undergraduate studies, especially under your supervision? Thank you so much for your generous help in this matter.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
尊敬的鲁宾逊教授:
作为您的一名学生,我给您写信想请求您的好心帮助。我想去斯坦福大学学习宗教学课程,为此我需要提供一封推荐信。
您作为该领域的资深教授、我最尊敬的大学老师之一和非常了解我的人,对我来说是最合适的推荐人。如您所知,我已在宗教学方面打下了一个坚实的基础。如果您能在信中证明我有足够的资格上这门课,我将非常感谢。
不知您能否简要介绍一下我本科期间的学习成绩,尤其是您指导下的学习成绩?由衷感谢您在此事上的慷慨帮助。
您真诚的,
李明
