# WISE Mentor Tyrone Jones Teaches Mentees to “Believe in Themselves”

Posted on May 15, 2015 by Danielle Brown

Tyrone Jones became a WISE mentor at Bronx Leadership Academy II to “support and encourage his students.” For four years, he has “taught his mentees that they can do anything as long as they believe in themselves.” In addition to boosting his students’ confidence, Tyrone listens to his students and provides them with guidance, constructive feedback, and optimism to help them along their WISE journey.

Over the years Tyrone has mentored many extraordinary students. One of his standout mentees from last year wanted to become a school counselor. The student interned with Tyrone and made a video of a day in the life of a high school counselor for his WISE project. During the student’s final presentation, Tyrone has to step out, because “it became emotional.” He was “so proud of and humbled by [his] mentee at the same time.”

“Once you become a mentor, you’re hooked and you want to do it every year,” said Tyrone. To all first-year and future WISE mentors, he added, “Welcome to the Mentor’s Club.”
