I am on a mission to EMPOWER individuals with the tools they need to become the confident communicator they've always dreamed of being.

After completing my bachelor's and master's degrees at Northeastern University, I went on to become a Nationally Accredited and State Certified Speech-and-Language Pathologist. I spent the first few years of my time as a student and new clinician servicing adults and children who struggled with communication as a result of brain injuries, delayed language development and/or speech-sound disorders, stuttering, voice disorders, and social skill disorders.

Since 2017 I have been passionate about applying my skill-set to coaching, international students and corporate professionals who feel stuck or behind their peers, colleagues, and friends.

My services as a coach are committed to providing motivated individuals with comprehensive, practical, and personalized support because I believe that your voice deserves to finally be heard.

I took the GRE three times in order to achieve the score I was hoping for to impress graduate schools during the application process. I know all of the nuances of the exam and can offer the tools and strategies that helped me most - beyond using exam prep books. My field of Speech-Language Pathology also gives me insight on the Executive Functioning Skills required to prepare, organize and plan for test taking and all other aspects of academic work.

Dedicated, thoughtful and patience tutor

I’ve learnt many perfect phrases for everyday communication life. In addition, Diandra has taught me how to pronounce words that I was struggling with. She also helped me with oral presentations based on ted talks. Finally, she helped out to memorize new vocabulary. I had an excellent time having class with Diandra. She encouraged me to believe more in myself. She is an extremely good teacher!
