About me
My tutoring
Hi! My name is Dario, I'm 36 and I come from Italy. After completing my university studies, I started traveling around the world. Ireland, USA, China, Sweden, Germany, Greece, Turkey are just some of the countries I've lived in. Living abroad I had the chance to cultivate my passion for languages and to learn a few myself on the way. Finally I made a job out of my passion: I have been a language teacher for over a decade, working in schools, universities and offering private tuition to individuals and groups.
I really enjoy teaching because it allows me to help people improve themselves. It feels great to see my students making progress! I view teaching as an exchange of ideas between teacher and learner and an opportunity for personal growth. I'll be glad to be your teacher!

Europe/Rome otherLanguages are my passion! Besides Italian, which is my mother tongue, I speak English and Greek fluently. In my opinion learning and teaching foreign languages is one of the most compelling and rewarding activities one can do. On the other hand, I am fully aware that learning a new language can be challenging and requires time and dedication. That's why motivation, positive reinforcement and engagement play a key role in my approach. I resort to a variety of techniques to make my lessons always fun and engaging. The learning material includes the latest coursebooks as well as authentic material such as newspapers, songs, blogs etc. Of course all the lessons are tailor-made to fit the learner's interests, needs and goals. As languages can be viewed as a verbal expression of culture, I consider it of paramount importance to deal with the main elements of the culture in which the language is spoken. I take it as a personal challenge to make you love the language you are learning!

Reviews about me:
Very pleasant communication, the teacher explains clearly all the questions and has a variety of professional learning materials.
Everything is perfect.
I have had several lessons of the Italian language with Dario so far. He is a great teacher, very friendly and professional. His explanations are easy and clear and examples of word usage are real life. As a native speaker, he explains all the peculiarities of the language, and as a professional teacher of English he sees all the difficulties that a language learner can face and helps the student to overcome them successfully.
My experience with Dario has been excellent. His approach to language learning is very professional and he employs a variety of teaching tools. He is very patient and I would highly recommend him as a tutor.
Perfect lesson!
Thank you for the first interesting lesson! You are very friendly and explains everything very clearly!
Dario De Santis is very professional, easy to get along, friendly and most importantly he gives step by step explanations and make sure I understand everything before taking a next step. I would definitely recommend! Many thanks.
Frequently Asked Questions
If a tutor cancels a lesson that has been confirmed before, you get the total amount paid for this lesson back to your online wallet balance. You can use this balance to book the next lessons on lonet.
To provide a short answer to this question, we would say as follows: Go to a tutor if: you want to study the language. You will learn grammar rules, and practice reading, writing, and listening skills. If you are a beginner or an elementary-level learner, choose a tutor. With a tutor, you will work on and improve your language skills. Go to a trainer if: you want to develop your speaking skills mainly. Choose a native trainer to train your accent, speaking skills, and conversational vocabulary, get cultural insights, and have nice targeted conversations in the language with a native speaker-trainer. Go to a language coach if: you are at the intermediate and upper-intermediate level of the language and want to develop your specific language skills. If you want to become a confident language speaker, fluent in a specific area, in a language for specific purposes, and break all the barriers you have in your language learning, choose a language coach.
Book a free consultation session with Kristine and tell her about your concerns. She is a creator of Lonet.Academy, a language learning expert, a polyglot, and a performance coach. She is happy to provide valuable advice and insights, according to your unique needs and personal situation.
In the case if you booked the lessons and the tutor has already confirmed them, you can cancel your lessons (by going to your pending lessons and pressing the button “cancel”), but in this case, you will get your money back to your balance (online wallet) with a deduction of 5 eur per each lesson canceled. You can still use the remaining balance to book your lessons with another tutor. To avoid this we recommend buying special deals with us, that provide you with a specific amount of money in your online wallet (with a more than paid value) and you can use this balance later when you are confident to book.
