Chiara Maddalena

My Italian lessons are interactive, student-focused, and designed to suit your personal goals—whether you’re starting from scratch, improving your conversation skills, or preparing for an exam. I aim to create a relaxed and supportive environment where you feel confident practicing and making mistakes—because that’s how real learning happens!

A typical lesson includes a mix of speaking, listening, grammar, and vocabulary, often through real-life topics like food, travel, culture, and everyday conversation. I like to use practical examples and tailor activities to your interests, so lessons are never one-size-fits-all. We’ll also review your progress regularly and adjust the pace to what works best for you.

I’ve worked with children and adults, both as a tutor and a summer camp volunteer, and I know how to keep learners engaged and motivated. Whether you're learning for fun, school, or work, my goal is to make Italian feel accessible, enjoyable, and useful from day one.
