Hello! I’m Jennifer Williams.
I wasn't born to "just teach", I was born to inspire others, to change people, and to never give up; even when faced with challenges that seem impossible.

Bio
As a recently retired TN licensed elementary thru high school teacher, I dedicated 43 years in Memphis's Shelby County Schools system. I've recently had the privilege of instructing in a small lower elementary Montessori classroom. Teaching is my life!
​
My objective is to be as a nurturing facilitator to all students while engraining the concept that education is empowering. The pandemic had a powerful effect on children struggling to learn remotely for a year. Some are still catching up on what was missed. This one of the many reasons why I have chosen to dedicate my personal time to tutoring. My passion is making sure that our youth is up to par in all aspects of their educational experience!
