Comments regarding willingness or desire to improve performance (not required)

Jared spends non-work hours thinking about how to better teach his students. He is reliable and always showed up early/stayed late to ensure everything that was needed of him was met.

What would you consider this person’s strengths and/or weaknesses?

Jared meets all students right where they are at with appropriate lessons for where they are at in their current skills. Working alongside him, you can see his obvious dedication to helping students not only succeed in whatever it is that they are trying to achieve, but also in facilitating an engaging, creative, and FUN experience. I have watched Jared take a student from anxious and perhaps even unwilling to participate into a student who feels confident to try new things. He does this by utilizing patience, understanding, and passion for what he is teaching!

Is there anything else you feel would be important for us to know, and if so, please describe?

Our teaching/working together was in educational theatre, however I remember him fondly talking about his love of snowboarding. I believe that all of my experiences with him would easily extend to being an instructor at Mt Hood Meadows.

All this to say, I believe that he exceeds the qualifications and would be an amazing addition to your team.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything else from me!
