This is my letter of recommendation.Please edit it and remove mistakes(if any) and also provide feedback too.

"It is great privilege that I am writing to you in recommendation of Mr. xxxx.

As an Associate Professor in Department of xx Engineering at xx University, I deal with many students having considerable knowledge of field. Each year I observed that only a few outstanding students having a unique perspective really embrace their learning of subjects. Mr. xx has consistently shown such a strong desire and keen interest to learn.

Teaching Mr. xx in three different subjects of his 3rd year and final year of under-graduation which are "DSP, Basic Electronics", I found him attentive, perceptive and hard working. As a course teacher I perceived him having outstanding overall intellectual and analytical ability. In addition to doing uniformly excellent work on the exams and assignments, he was an active participant in the class discussions and quizzes. And made intelligent and insightful contributions during full-class discussions. He continues to impress me with his knowledge, skills and dedication to his work. He has been one of our most dedicated students.

I can assure that he is exceptionally creative and capable of developing alternative solutions to the renowned problems. Compared to the class average of 130 students, Mr. xx performed exceptionally well and remained in top 5 of total strength.

In addition, xx has also worked voluntarily for the campus monthly newsletter under my supervision. I have found him to be easily adjustable, pleasant and charitable person always looking forward to take on a challenging task. He is glorious at interpersonal skills. Xx has an art to manage and organize time and schedule around different extra-curricular activities without having them interfere with studies.

I have enjoyed seeing his enthusiasm in an undergraduate level about a professional career and potential to contribute in his field of electronics engineering. His throughout achievements from early education, commitment to the studies and hard work in pursuing his goals will surely serve him more than best in your graduation program.I strongly recommend that you consider Mr. xx's application, as he will be a great asset to your program. Please feel free to contact me if anything I can do for him."

The recommendation is a little generic, and I don't really see much of your personality other than that you work hard. Ask the writer to include some specific details when he was impressed by you (especially if he supervised you), because now it's basically a list of facts (you're in the top 5%, you volunteer, you're friendly and sociable, etc.)

Also, this sentence is just terrible:

"He is glorious at interpersonal skills"
I don't think the word "glorious" should ever be used unless you're a deity.

I agree it is a little generic. But it seems pretty easy to fix.

Maybe if you can connect these better or add a specific example
"I can assure that he is exceptionally creative and capable of developing alternative solutions to the renowned problems. Compared to the class average of 130 students, Mr. xx performed exceptionally well and remained in top 5 of total strength.

connect his creativity, and alternative solutions to his work on the monthly newsletter and charitable work...i would also ask the student for a list of his extra-curricular so you can not only generalized his characteristics but prove them

In addition, xx has also worked voluntarily for the campus monthly newsletter under my supervision. I have found him to be easily adjustable, pleasant and charitable person always looking forward to take on a challenging task. He is glorious at interpersonal skills. Xx has an art to manage and organize time and schedule around different extra-curricular activities without having them interfere with studies.

. you dont have to recount a specific instance but maybe something he was insightful or had great enthusiasm for in the class
