TO WHOMSOEVER IT MAY CONCERN
Mrs. B. Maya is known to me fromher Kalakshetra days. After graduating from Kalakshetra, she joined our Institution as a part time teacher and also continues her learning. As a student she is a very hard working girl and equipped very well to impart young children.
As a teacher she is very patient and devoted. She has very good knowledge of dance theory.
I have no apprehensions whatsoever recommending her for a dance teacher's post, and I am sure she will be an asset to the organization.
She is very well behaved and good natured girl with committment to her work. I wish her all the best.
As her Guru (Teacher) I wish to see her in the best of her career as a dancer and dedicated teacher.
