About Me
italki teacher since May 10, 2024InterestsReadingWritingMusicFilms & TV SeriesFood
Ciao! I’m Dario, a native Italian author and tutor from Genova, specializing in language and identity through storytelling. My bestselling gay / LGBT novel, "Ragazzo, Uomo e Nemo" (available on Amazon), explores these themes, making it an engaging resource for students seeking cultural depth in their Italian studies. As a multilingual speaker (English, Spanish, Indonesian, and Portuguese), I bring firsthand insight into the language-learning process. I have experience teaching all kinds of students, from beginners to advanced learners. My approach can be tailored to your interests, whether analyzing literature, dissecting music, or practicing conversation.
I’m a queer🌈, open-minded Italian teacher who values communication, respect, and an inclusive learning environment. I adapt my lessons to each student, focusing on grammatical accuracy and vocabulary
We can learn together through simple conversation (I particularly like to talk about travel) or translating songs, movies or books, reviewing grammar and vocabulary, etc. ( to review grammar I use a book, I can eventually send the PDF file)My teaching material

Ho fatto questa prima lezione di scrittura, molto interessante per chi vuole imparare la lingua altrimenti. Dario, che è uno scrittore, è molto a suo agio con questo tipo di esercizio. Ve lo consiglio veramente !

This was my first lesson in Italian in a very long time and I had a lot of fun speaking with Dario. We reviewed some grammar exercises and had a bit of conversation in between. Dario is very kind and easy to speak with and I look forward to the next less. Thank you, Dario!

Oggi abbiamo lavorato alla scrittura di una lettera di motivazione. Quest'esperienza è molto interessante per migliorare il livello linguistico.

I was so excited to have a lesson with Dario after taking a long break! Today he helped walk me through some pretty challenging grammar exercises and I could not ask for a better tutor - Bravo, Dario! Thank you!
