General and conclusory opinions repeating the statutory standard do not establish major significance. The letters lacked specificity about the impact of the petitioner's contributions. Vague solicited letters from local colleagues and similarities between letters further reduced their probative value. The petitioner's role as a volunteer and assistant coach for an already award-winning program is insufficient on its own.

The plain language of the criterion requires the petitioner himself to be the named award recipient. Awards received by athletes the petitioner coached do not satisfy criterion (i).

AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO found that the petitioner's letters of support were conclusory and uncorroborated, lacking documentary evidence that her seminar materials, assessment tools, or teaching contributions had measurably influenced the field of bilingual French education as a whole. The petitioner's qualifications and experience, while creditable, did not demonstrate the requisite national impact beyond her immediate students and school.
