About Me

Hi,

My name is Mykalin Jones, but you can call me MJ. As a young person, I found that I had to do things a little differently if I wanted to get the grades I needed. My mom pulled me out to homeschool me in middle school and that was when I really learned how to teach myself. This skill led me to begin showing others how to master difficult concepts and made me realize how much I loved teaching. While still in high school, I became a peer math tutor and worked for a small tutoring company in my town.

I went off to college to study physics at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. During this time, I started working on my own as a tutor and academic coach to neurodivergent students. I discovered a passion for making education accessible and working with individual learning styles.

I continued this work while finishing my first master's in Nuclear Science and Engineering. I also began teaching English as a second language, SAT/ACT prep, GRE prep, and coding.

After moving to France for my second master's in Particle Astrophysics, I continued teaching English and began supporting small businesses with their website and data analytics needs. I was also hired to teach small GMAT classes. Afterward, I began to offer GMAT tutoring on an individual basis. During this time, I wrote my own curriculum to teach children python. A curriculum for adults soon followed.

I have taught students from the age of 5 to 46 a variety of topics that expand all of the time. I continue to learn something new every day in this business. I can't wait to start learning with you!  

Education

2013-2017

B.S. in Physics

Worcester Polytechnic Institute

My undergraduage degree was in physics. I completed my Major Qualifying Project in the topic of computational physics/particle astrophysics. I worked with Gent4 to produce a monte carlo simulation of the particle transport processes that may occur in the IceCube array due to a tau neutrino interaction

2017-2019

Master's in Nuclear Science and Engineering
Worcester Polytechnic Institute

During my masters in Nuclear science and Engineering I expanded my senior project into a thesis while also taking courses in radiation biology, health physics, and other topics in Nuclear and Particle physics. I also worked in the Math department as a Teaching Assistant.

2019-2021

Master's in Subatomic and Astroparticle Physics
Universite de Strasbourg

I spent two years in France completing my second master's with the PSA program. My final Thesis was with the Nuclear Astrophysics group, working on classifying a detector for potential addition to the STELLA apparatus.
