I feel safe and happier now

My husband and I were scared we would have an accident in a new country and not be able to communicate and advocate for ourselves. It also felt bad when I didn’t understand people. Chiara helped me have more communication with strangers. I understand people and can speak in daily life - at the doctor’s office or when I do chores. I can have conversations with our nanny, watch movies in English, understand song lyrics, and read leveled books. I feel safe and happier now. I can continue to help my family.

Hi, I'm Chiara!

[pronounced key-ara]

I know that you are here because English is necessary for daily life in the U.S. I help immigrants and newcomers speak English in a safe, low-stress way so they can go on to have many conversations.

I struggled to speak to people when I moved to a foreign country too. I know what it is like to have fears that get in the way of learning. I enjoy helping my students discover their true obstacles - sometimes we have to look inside to discover why we are stuck.

More About Me

I put my fear aside to achieve the goal

I feel grateful, grateful for the opportunity, grateful to be able to make mistakes as many times as necessary until I can get it right. I could put my fear aside to achieve the goal. It was a more than wonderful experience. I don't even have words to express how much my English evolved. I remember the first class where I could barely speak about where I lived. Today I can talk about my neighborhood and my favorite places. This is rewarding.

All of the lessons were extremely relevant

I was too afraid to speak...I also had a grammatical deficiency which made it very difficult for me to build dialogue. Today I feel less nervous when speaking English. I have made significant improvements in grammar and speaking skills. Chiara’s lessons are perfect for anyone who needs to develop their confidence in speaking and overcome speech blocks. One thing I would like to highlight is her dedication to the student in customizing the class according to needs. All of the lessons were extremely relevant.
