Stop forgetting everything between lessons
Daily practice in Italian, French, or Dutch, built around the life you already have. No live classes. No Zoom. No evenings lost.
"Chiara is the perfect teacher if you need someone to help you learn a language in the middle of your busy life. Her methods and approach help you gain fluency in an attainable manner while still fitting in your normal schedule."
Felix Sames · French
I followed traditional Dutch classes all the way to C1 and still couldn't hold a conversation. What changed was messaging a friend every day. French went the same way: years of classes did less than needing the language to belong somewhere.
Classes gave me structure. Frequency gave me fluency.
You practice once a week, forget most of it before the next session, and never build the automaticity that makes speaking feel effortless. The classical model assumes you have spare energy after work to review and consolidate. Most people don't.
Fluency is a retrieval skill, and retrieval has one law: frequency beats intensity.

Most people who want faster progress choose Circle + WhatsApp.
Italian, French, Dutch. All levels.
No modules to complete. Occasional live sessions to attend but which are not the core focus of the learning method. A real person reads everything you produce.
"My listening and reading level were already somewhat decent, but speaking was at zero, and in that I have seen a great progression. Overall, my command of Dutch improved from basic/A1 till approx. B1 level... with her innovative method via WhatsApp (which I initially found unusual), frequent recorded messages and her timely corrections, we have managed to overcome my reticence. I find myself casually striking conversation with strangers in Dutch (holiday, cab driver, etc.) and at work."
Gianmaria Foschini, Senior Consultant
With daily or near-daily practice, you'll notice the difference in 2-3 months. If nothing has changed after three months, something is wrong and we fix it.
How long people usually stay
"She helped me grow my French from an absolute zero to something around B2 with impressive steadiness and quality content... I recommend starting with, at least, a 2-month engagement, and you'll be delighted by the progress you'll start seeing by the end of it."
Marcoandrea Marchetti · French · 6+ months
The trial shows you the format. Two months shows you the results. There's no lock-in either way, and you can cancel whenever you want.
Want something built around a specific goal?
An exam, a job interview, a move, a deadline. Tell me what you're working towards and I'll tell you honestly whether I can help.
Common questions
Do I need to be online at specific times?
No. Reply whenever. I check daily and give feedback. That's the point.
Can I start from scratch?
Yes. Or use this to finally activate what you learned (and forgot) from other courses.
"I'm studying English with her starting from pretty much zero, because I never had the chance to study it at school... after just a few weeks I'm already able to hold conversations much more fluently than before and I feel considerably more confident using the language... If anyone is skeptical about whether an async program can really work, my experience so far would say absolutely yes."
Laura Crespi · English · from zero
What if I'm embarrassed about my level?
Everyone is at the start. Nobody else sees your mistakes except me, and mistakes are the material we work with.
"Learning Italian with Chiara is a relaxed, natural experience. It's like speaking with an Italian friend... Even though my Italian isn't perfect, I always feel comfortable. I feel accepted as a person."
Jozef Wouters · Italian · A2
How do corrections work?
You choose: essential fixes for confidence, or detailed feedback for precision. Custom exercises when you need them.
I’m busy - is this for me?
This is built for busy people. No long classes after work, no Zoom fatigue.
"As a language trainer myself, I've learned a lot from Chiara. Her personalized assignments and innovative use of technology have inspired me to adopt some of her tools in my own teaching."
Claudia H., Teacher of German as a Foreign Language
Will you help me with pronunciation too?
Yes. It's part of both tiers (for tier 1 it happens during the live meetings, for tier 2 we deal with it on WhatsApp).
