    TO: Whom It May Concern

Gentlemen:
I am writing this letter to recommend Larysa Gorbacheva for the position of translator with your company. She is a person of highest integrity and honesty. She has a pleasant personality and brings a good, uplifting spirit to the work place. Larysa volunteered in our office here in Kiev for a year. During that time she greeted people, answered the telephone, and served as translator-both written and verbal- for office staff. She is loyal, has a great work ethic and is dependable with regard to assignments and deadlines. She has an excellent command of conversational English and has translated many written talks, lesson materials and articles by leaders of the Church organization from English into Russian and Ukrainian. Her translation effort has also expanded into translating books and films. Her knowledge of the language is also good in several technical fields. She can translate from either the written or spoken word, but is more proficient with the written word.

I can recommend Larysa highly as a valuable employee.

    Sincerely,

    Glen F. Jepsen
    Assistant to the President

    RE: Larysa Gorbacheva

    Larysa Gorbacheva has served as my translator from February through May, 1998. Larysa has provided me invaluable service during this time by her willingness to try to make herself as useful as possible. Her persistence in making telephone calls to get appointments for me were well beyond the call of duty.

    Although she does not have computer or typing skills, she is eager to learn. She is very knowledgeable about Ukrainian history, culture and art and has provided me with insights and appreciation of this country and its people. I would highly recommend Larysa to anyone looking for a pleasant and capable person to be their translator.
