Who would be a good person to ask for a recommendation?

A teacher, a supervisor at a volunteer job you’ve done, I’ve used pastors and youth leaders before… any non-relative that can vouch for you.

That’s the answer. Good luck.

If the teacher can speak to your work habits.

Make sure you get permission to use them as a reference first.

Most if you ask a teacher they will be willing to write you a recommendation letter so you can include it with your application. Usually jobs ask for 3 references.

School guidance counselor

Business acquaintances, teachers, academic advisors, customers, vendors, athletic coach etc. can make good references.
