Bio
Hello! My name is Tommy Jones, and I am a rising junior with an Economics major at UNC-Chapel Hill! I hope that I can help others grow to be more confident in math by sharing experiences of my own!
I have a great capacity to listen and truly evaluate what issues persistent in the hindrance of learning a subject. When tutoring my brother, we identified his specific strengths and also areas to target where he was not confident. I believe that first gauging a student's understanding of the material allows me to tailor a plan to help them be the most successful.
Education
- (2019) - High School Graduate (Cannon School in Concord, NC)
- (2019 - 2023) - BS Economics, BA History, Philosophy/Politics/Economics (PPE) Minor (UNC-Chapel Hill)
My proudest achievements
- I have great and unique relationships with my younger siblings.
- Graduated in the top 10% of my high school class and maintained a 3.75 GPA throughout my first two years of college.
- I pride myself on being well-rounded, whether that be church involvement, playing piano, or my love for the outdoors.
