What exactly is considered a "good" recommendation?

Highly enthusiastic and with specific details of why you’re a great candidate, not just generalizations. A rec that can comment on not just your academic skills but also reflect positively on your character and personality would be good.

A great recommendation would convincingly explain why you are one of the best students teacher has had in his/her entire career.
