DearAdmissions Officer:
Iam writing this letter to support the admission of XXX to the Harvard GraduateSchool, Statistic. I was Mr. X's internship Referral and advisor for severalyears between 2010 and 2011. We have met and talked several times since.

Whether rendering a spread sheetanalysis, making a model or writing a report, XXX always demonstrated uncannymastery combined with critical wit. While many of the staff members I have metperformed very well in the company, X alone has completed work that meetswith tastes of senior managers. Even more importantly he offered new ideaswhich we could comprehend and even assimilate.
Unlike most ofhis colleagues I have talked in the XXXXX, Mr. X immersedhimself in American culture. He composed a joke as part of his firstpresentation analyzing a current plan. It worked.

Tan possesses and uses an easygoing manner andspirited conviviality to put people at ease. He can easily make people tobelieve him. In addition, X has special self-study and is experienced inprogramming, especially in C/C++, as well as his intelligent judgment. He learnedearly on the painful lessons of C language, and has learned how to write thepointer and algorithm to make “accepting”. I have every confidence that he willuse this considerable knowledge to tackle completed problems and study on alarger scale.
While as an internshipmember in our company, X took a lot of tasks under the help of the directorof the Financial Analyst. Financial Analysis, a cumbersome and stressful jobcorrelated with technical analysis and XXXX in stock market. Tanshowed wonderful digital sensitivity for graphic grasp and analysis.

我是XXX实习工作推荐人和顾问(2010年5月—2010年8月初，X在我公司实习)。我写这封信的目的是推荐XXX就读哈佛大学统计学博士。
XXX的学历和能力是真凭实据。他不仅知道如何理性地对待数字和数据,并如何在尖锐的现实生活中,表现出富有想象力的数学思维。他做事勤勤恳恳，认认真真。不管是在分析财务报表,还是做一个模型或者写一份报告,谭总是能很好的完成任务。X在公司一直表现得很好,能够独立完成各项工作。更重要的是他可以提出我们可以理解和吸收的新思想。
XXX向往美国文化。他在生活中是一个充满幽默气息的人，这也融入到他的工作理念中。我见证了他的能力和知识的提升。XXX来到了XXX，变得更自信，更有个人英雄主义气息，最适于美国的文化。
XXX有强大的潜力和雄心壮志。他敢于面对工作中和生活中的各种挑战。给人最印象深刻的.事是他努力工作，利用每一个机会去学习。X拥有一种平易近人的精神面貌，他是欢乐的代名词,使人感到自在。他给人信任感。此外,X自学了程序设计课程,特别是在C/C++语言程序设计方面,以及他的综合判断分析数据。他磨练意志，善于总结经验教训。通过C语言学习，他学会了怎样写指针和算法,使程序做到完美。我非常有信心,他将来能解决更多问题和参与研究完成更高端的课题。
财务分析,是一种复杂的和高度紧张的工作，包括了技术分析和基本面分析。而作为一个实习生成员，谭在我们公司张建分析师的指导下完成了许多财务分析工作，并且表现出惊人的数字敏感性，图形的把握和分析能力。
X很聪明，他已获得在统计和编程方面的知识，但更重要的是他想要通过努力来扩充自己的智慧和用它来帮助中国统计的进步。他准备申请在美国攻读博士学位并圆满完成这一令人兴奋的旅程。我个人认为，XXXX的追求和能力是同步的。我们所有的经理和员工不仅会谢谢你接纳这样一个优秀的候选人,同时我相信我们的员工、顾客和公民将会受益于他未来的倾情奉献。
我首先上了哈佛的官网去调查这个专业的要求，然后按照专业要求细节，比如需要计算机知识，需要能运用统计学软件等等，一步扣一环的写了推荐信，当然为了保持一种舒适和自然感我写的比较散一点。其实我也就是抛砖引玉，如果有更好的想法可以大家一起交流。
