My name is Mrs. Yolanda Williams. I am the 1st grade teacher here at Redemptorist St. Gerard School. I was born and raised right here in Baton Rouge Louisiana. I graduated from Southern University with a Bachelor degree in Therapeutic Recreation and Leisure Studies. I then received a Masters degree in Business Administration from the University of Phoenix. I have also received a teaching certificate from LRCE and I am currently taking early childhood classes at Ashworth College. I have been teaching for five years. I have taught Pre-K, Kindergarten and 1st grade. I have also been a teacher assistant for two years in a Montessori School for 1st -3rd grade students as well as a Reading Interventionist for 3rd and 5th grade. I am grateful to have a job that allows me to work with students who continue to inspire me each day.
