Hey! Yours is seizure-ish too!(Your avatar is gonna give me a seizure LOL)
"Now for the B-ranks!"
"This one has you surrounding yourself with Earth in the immediate area around you. You can use your shape manipulation to change it into most formations of your desire. For example, you can allow it to form a complete dome around you, or a shelter with openings to be able to view the outside."
"Perform this, please, and tell me what you think the dome is capable of defending from. Like, for example, it can defend from up to B-rank wind, and so on and so forth."
(Doton: Iwa no Hogo) - Earth Release: Earth Shelter Technique
Rank: B
Type: Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user surrounds themselves with earth, taken from the immediate vicinity, in order to fabricate a formation of rock that is capable of protecting both the user and others in close proximity, if desired. Doing so, seemingly leaves the surrounding terrain unaltered, even when the quantity of earth used is enough to form a complete dome around multiple individuals as seen when Ittan used this technique. The user can also manipulate the resulting shelter to have openings in it so as to be able to observe outside, as demonstrated when used by Kitsuchi.
"The next technique has similar properties to the first jutsu, except it only covers the front. Quite straightforward, but how would you counter this, knowing that it only protects your opponent's front?"
(Doton: Iwa Enchou no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Earth Dome Technique
Rank: B
Type: Defensive, Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description:The user slams his hands on the ground and creates a 1/4 dome of earth, which protects them from frontal external attacks. The domes shape is in a similar fashion to wood release: wood locking walls.
As Onoki-sama has finished up with his instructions, Tenten molds a vast amount of earthen chakra, promptly redirecting it troughout her legs and hands; she crouches down connecting both of her palms with the ground. A thick and solid earth dome is made around Tenten, a small window instantly forms and Tenten's hands and head emerge trough it, she leans trough the made window, giving a short insight of the learnt technique to ojisan;

As you said, it's weak to B+ wind, it can sustain even bigger ranked suiton attacks since earth absorbs water, it can somewhat defend from lower katon untill it starts to melt out/crumble, and it is intensively weak to raiton techniques of any rank. Also it's weak to stronger doton techs and users which can phase trough the dome with usage of earth chakra. I like this jutsu cuz it's usable in so many different situations, for example, a close up short ranged combat, If I manage to bind my opponent somehow, I can entrap him in the dome with me afterwards, escape trough means of Mogarakure no jutsu, than protrude him with countless pillars within the dome. I got no further questions about this tech, but do correct me or tell me If I have missed something sensei.
The earthen dome disperses, Tenten takes a few steps forward, slamming her palms on the ground again, now a 1/4 of the dome emerges infront of her, immediatly dispersing afterwards; she turns to Onoki-sama whom was on her right again;
I would counter this def with attacks from below, above, sides (slamming the opponent with 2 rock formations) or a quick switcharoo to the back of the opponent, for example with one of Hozuki's Hydrification jutsu: Torrent. The same usuall elemental pros and cons stand.
