About Me
italki teacher since Jul 7, 2021InterestsFoodTravelMedical & Healthcare
Hi my name is Chiara. For three years, I have been teaching Italian to learners of many different nationalities. I am an avid fan of Italian and Russian literature. In my free time I practice yoga and go out with my friends for a good Italian aperitif. I love to cook, and even more than that I love to eat!Me as a Teacher
I am a bubbly person, and I absolutely love my job. I enjoy discussing and explaining my student's linguistic and cultural curiosities. I like to motivate my students, because motivation is the most important element when it comes to learning a foreign language more . Don't be discouraged if you are struggling to learn Italian! Together we will find interesting topics to help you speed up learning.
Currently I am very interested in "Didactics of foreign languages", and together with my professor at the University of Bologna, Rosa Pugliese, I am writing an article which talks about the METHODS CREATED SPECIFICALLY FOR TEACHING ON THE INTERNET.My lessons & teaching style
In the FIRST LESSON I will submit you to an entrance test, in order to understand your language level.
During the SECOND LESSON we will introduce ourselves and agree together on which topics to start with and how to start.
My skills will help you improve in 4 language levels:
First of all, grammar (for example, prepositions, verbs, adjectives, and so on);
Secondly, Text level (how sentences relate to each other);
Pragmatics (I will explain to you not only the meaning of words, but also the meaning of various phrases, cliches, proverbs and sayings, and everything related to the cultural background);
and lastly, Communication (how to quickly and correctly switch to spoken Italian).My teaching material

Awesome! Chiara is a professional teacher and it really shows. The classes are always fun and cater to my individual needs and weaknesses. The content is diverse and relevant for daily, but also professional situations. Also, whenever she gives answers to my questions or explains certain grammatical rules or structures, she does an excellent job in doing so, making it easy to understand. Out of all Italian teachers I have tried so far, she certainly is the best and I am excited for every class.

Chiara is an excellent Italian teacher who not only provides clear grammar explanations, but also ample opportunity for conversation and also texts about Italian culture. The result is a really good mix that helps you make progress in a quick and interesting way.
