To tower over someone or something means to be much taller than that person or thing.

Examples:

Joan towers over her husband when she wears her smart high heel shoes.

The new skyscraper towers over the buildings downtown.

Take note:

You call someone a tower of strength when you mean they are strong and supportive.

Example:

When my parents died my older brother was a tower of strength.
