I've written letters of recommendation before. I usually ask the student to provide me with a resume or at least a list of activities to help me see what this person is all about. I also ask the student why they want the letter (meaning to get into a college or for a scholarship). I incorporate their answers into the letter.

For example, I wrote a letter for a student who is applying for a scholarhip. I asked them if they won the scholarship what would be done with the money? How would the scholarship help them meet their long-term goals? I use this info & incorporate it into my letter to show how the student would benefit from the reward of the acceptance/scholarship/whatever....

Hope this helps...
