There should not be two tables created in the SQL DB Browser. If there was, then there might be an option in your code causing that. The Person is the model within our code, which represents the People table in our actual SQL database. By default Sequelize pluralizes model names whenever it translates them into SQL tables. As mentioned in previous videos, this feature can be turned off via options.
