在英国留学或者找工作，都会遇到需要提交推荐信，尤其是申请英国的学校，无论是本科还是研究生，几乎都是要求提供推荐信。那么很多英国本科留学生想要继续申请研究生或是找工作，该如何向教授发邮件要推荐信呢?这里英国留学辅导老师帮大家总结了发邮件要推荐信的的万能模版。

首先开头是一些基础的问候

Professor [Name]/ Dear Dr. [Name],

(I hope this email finds you well.)

邮件开头的常用客套话，也可省略

My name is […]. I took your [Course name] course last semester.

简要介绍自己及与教授的联系

You may remember me coming to your office hours after every test to go over some of my wrong answers/ discuss essay prompts / etc.

如果和教授在课下有过一定接触，可以提起让教授有印象：

You may not remember me [e.g., because I tend to put my nose to the grindstone and study on my own.]

如果和教授从没有课下的接触, 可以简要地为自己开脱;

[Course name] was a very challenging subject for me and I was proud of the [Grade, e.g. A-] I received in your class.

写出自己本课的成绩(一般会选择成绩较好的课的任课老师写推荐信)

I am currently in the process of applying to [University/ College/School name] and I am trying to gather a few letters of recommendation.

另起一段，写明来意：准备申请某学校，因此需要邀请信。

Because I enjoyed [ e.g., your class and teaching style so much/ your research/ etc.], I decided to start by asking you. Would you be able to write me a strong letter of recommendation for my [University/College/School name] application?

如果和教授有过一定接触，可以这么写;

Because of the way I study it has been difficult for me to develop a relationship with my professors. I enjoyed [your class and teaching style very much / your research/ etc.], so I decided to start by asking you. Would it be possible for us to meet and discuss the possibility of you writing a strong letter of recommendation for my [school] application?

如果和教授从没有接触，可以先提出面谈邀请信的事宜，让对方先了解你;且用语更加委婉)

I would be more than happy to meet with you at your convenience. Of course, I would also provide my personal statement, CV, and any other material that you would like.

另起一段，陈述把自己现有的资料(除了PS、CV外，还可以提供自己做过的research/project/paper的资料)提供给导师，保证对方有内容可写而不是仅凭上课对你的记忆。*有时也有自己先写好推荐信、让教修改的操作(需和教授讨论)

If you don’t feel comfortable writing me a strong letter of recommendation, please don’t feel obligated to say yes. I completely understand.

另起一段，如果和导师有过接触(但还是不太熟)，可以参考如上表述;don’t destroy the professor’s negative face 给对方留出选择余地。

I realize that writing a letter of recommendation would be a burden on your time and it means a lot to me that you would take the time to read and consider my request.

但如果你是课堂上的隐形人，和导师完全没接触，就要把自己的要求写的更加的委婉，给对方留出选择余地的同时表达出迫切和感激。

Sincerely,

[Your Full Name]

结尾附上自己的全名(可以加上自己的联系电话、Student Number等有关信息)
