Hello, my name is Dominique Mahon. I live in the wonderful Windy City, also known as Chicago. I am a mother of four beautiful daughters and grandmother of two beautiful children. I became a foster parent about 1 year ago and it has been very rewarding. 

I possess my Masters in General Psychology and a Bachelors of Science in Healthcare Administration. I have 12 years of experience homeschooling my four children and five years of academic enrichment support for diverse learners in a homeschooling environment. My experience with academic enrichment support for diverse learners was specifically focused towards children ages 4 - 12 years old with behavioral and learning impairments. I have eight years of experience tutoring college-level adults in the areas of English Composition, Business Marketing and Strategies, and Childhood Development. I currently work with children ages 6 - 10 years old with moderate to severe autism. This involves planning, preparing, and running academic, occupational, and speech coursework. I have two years of experience performing academic testing and developing academic programming for autistic children. I have two years of experience learning how to develop and build upon appropriate goal-oriented occupational therapeutic programs for autistic children. 

I enjoy teaching and engaging with young learners. I love watching their little eyes light up as they engage in learning while having fun. As a previous online student, I understand the challenges and diversity of learning through an online platform. I pledge to help build your child’s confidence and encourage their engagement through interactive play; while learning from the comfort of their homes. 

Classes to look out for:
- Climbing into Learning with Our Favorite Pals
- Soaring through Outer Space 

I look forward to engaging with your wonderful learners!
