Dear Tatyana,
I hope this message finds you in great health and high spirits. It’s Anton, and it has been quite a while since we last connected. I often think fondly of my time in your class.
I am reaching out to you because I have recently graduated and am currently applying for a position as a surgeon at a prestigious hospital in Great Britain. Throughout my life, I have strived to become exceptional in my field, and it has always been my dream to serve as a doctor and help others.
As part of the application process, the hospital requires a reference letter from someone who knew me during my school years. I immediately thought of you, as you were not only my favorite teacher but also someone who witnessed my growth and aspirations firsthand. If you are willing, I would greatly appreciate it if you could reflect on my character, dedication, and activities during my time in school.
If you agree to provide this reference, please send the letter to my email address at your convenience. Thank you so much for considering my request; your support means a lot to me.
Warm regards,
