Hello! My name is Ashlynn Wittchow! While this is my first year here at Irmo High School, this is my sixth year teaching English Literature and Composition. Prior to Irmo, I taught for five years at Hand Middle School and one year at Columbia College. In addition to earning degrees from the University of South Carolina and Middlebury College, I've spent two summers living and researching at Oxford University in England. In my spare time I love to read and travel.
