Dominic S.
Art Institute of Pittsburgh
Humanities Tutor with a specialization in History
I started in education by mentoring and leading K-8 students in an enrichment program, providing schoolwork assistance, and reinforcing math and language skills. I developed and delivered original lesson plans to supplement students' history and music education while fostering interpersonal intelligence through guidance on manners and attitudes. I supported ESL and Special Education students, helping them adapt to a dynamic academic environment. The school praised me for assisting 5th-grade students to increase their standardized test scores. When the pandemic hit, I brought my tutoring journey online. I was a K-12 English and Humanities Tutor, tutoring English Language Arts, History, Psychology, Sociology, Philosophy, and Political Science. I learned to adapt my tutoring and teaching approach to fit each student's needs and circumstances. In this role, I also reviewed and provided feedback on essays, assisting students throughout the writing process to enhance their skills in an online learning environment.
