Dear Mr Wang,
We are writing to recommend Cheng Lan as our new monitor. We think she would be an excellent monitor because she has many strong qualities for this position.
Cheng Lan is active and confident. She is never shy and likes talking to people. She is not afraid of speaking in front of a lot of people either. This is an important quality for a good monitor.
Cheng Lan is also hard-working. She always finishes all her homework early and does some extra work, so she would have the time and energy to be a monitor. Another important point is that she is very clever. She always comes up with good ideas. For example, she helped us win the Star Class Award last month.
Besides, Cheng Lan is an organized person. She can plan all her things well. She always pays attention to every detail when organizing class activities.
We think Cheng Lan is the right person to be our monitor. We hope that you agree with us.
Yours sincerely,
