Ever since Mrs. Amanda Hunsaker, was a little kid, she wanted to either be a history teacher, because she loves history, or a nurse, because her mom and sister are both nurses so she wanted to be one. But when Mrs. Hunsaker went to college, she did a summer camp for students in Special Education. She fell in love with it. So now, Mrs. Hunsaker teaches Special Education at Springville Junior High school. Mrs. Hunsaker said, “I never thought that I would ever teach this, but I just fell in love with it when I was in college doing the summer camp.”

Mrs. Hunsaker loves to see her students learn and progress. She really likes to see the students master difficult things. 

Peer tutors also help out in Mrs. Hunsaker’ class. Mrs. Hunsaker said, “They are AMAZING! They are the most important. Lots of the students need individual help.” So, the peer tutors will go and help the students with their math or their reading. Sometimes the peer tutors will help one or two students at a time.

Mrs. Hunsaker really enjoys teaching her class. She said, “I love teaching at the junior high, because there are so many things to teach and so many things to do. It’s fun to be able to do all the things I do.”
