"I am Dianne, a professional linguist with an approved background check, IXL-certified, and a mom to two beautiful sons who have ADHD, Autism, and other special needs challenges. I have taught students from all over the world, but specialize in tutoring students whose native languages are Romantic-Latin-based.

Qualifications: 30+ years of teaching experience in the US, Argentina, and Mexico. B.S. degree from Utah State University and graduate work from Northcentral University. I have run a successful international language company and have trained various language tutors worldwide.

1) ESL/TESOL: My niches are Conversation, Accent Reduction, Pronunciation, and Grammar along with music if you like.

2) GRAMMAR: The essentials for a solid foundation in English and Spanish.

3) LATIN AMERICAN SPANISH: I am currently working with three clients who are either moving to Argentina or Uruguay permanently or for academic or personal reasons. I am one of the few Wyzant tutors who can teach the Rio de la Plata (vos) dialect spoken in both Argentina and Uruguay. I also teach other dialects spoken in Latin America, like Mexican and Colombian.

4) WRITING/SPELLING: I am a Published Author and Top Content Writer and Spelling coach. We will do live editing and add resources to strengthen your vocabulary while you learn to polish your writing skills.

I use only the latest materials to teach with clear explanations, exercises, games, conversation, and music.

Most importantly, my mission is to help you gain the skills to communicate clearly and effectively in either English or Spanish." less...
