Team 8-2
A proud Rock Hill, SC native, Mrs. Akosua Amponsa brings a unique blend of experience from homeschooling and public school teaching, most recently serving middle school students in Charlotte-Mecklenburg. With a Master's degree in Education and a heart for Secondary English Language Arts, she’s all about helping students grow into confident, thoughtful communicators.
When she’s not diving into books with her students, you can find her gardening, lifting weights, or spending quality time with her family. She believes that building strong relationships is the key to unlocking student potential: “When trust is built, magic happens and there emerges a student ready, willing, and excited to learn.”
She’s thrilled to be joining the Falcon community and can’t wait to support and connect with students on their journey!
What is your favorite thing about teaching or being at Sullivan?
My favorite thing about teaching is that I love to encourage my students to think about and use what they know to come up with appropriate solutions to math problems.

I was born in Idaho but have spent most of my life in Little River, South Carolina. I graduated from Winthrop University with my Bachelor's degree in 2024 and earned my Master of Arts in Teaching in 2026. My teaching superpower is my positivity and creativity, which help me build strong relationships with students and create a fun, supportive learning environment. Fun fact about me is that one of my favorite quotes to live by is, "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not." by Dr. Seuss. In my free time, I enjoy reading and spending time with my family. I am so excited to be a part of the Falcon family and look forward to building meaningful relationships with my students and helping them grow throughout the school year!
