<p>My name is LaTorya Vereen and I plan to become one of those teacher's that inspire and encourage my students to strive for greatness while in school and beyond. I have thoroughly read and understood the school's mission statement and feel that my personality, skills, and drive are aligned with the core values. I am confident that I am the right choice to be hired as an ELA teacher at your school because I have an inherent ability to build the types of teams that people want to be on and can foster a positive, stimulating learning environment. Additionally, I plan to develop a strong student-teacher connection by providing my students with advice and mentoring, role playing, and working together as a team.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br></p>
