In Siena, your Italian journey with Chiara begins with something simple, yet deeply meaningful: a coffee.

With her signature “Coffee with Chiara” experience, you’ll sit down in a local bar and learn how to introduce yourself, make small talk, and—most importantly—navigate the subtle, unwritten rules of Italy’s beloved coffee ritual.

“Why did I choose coffee as the starting point for these lessons?” Chiara says. “Because it’s the perfect doorway into Italian culture. The bar isn’t just a place to grab a drink—it’s an institution, as central to daily life as the town’s church.”

So, what does “Ti va un caffè?” really mean?

In Italy, it’s never just about the coffee. It’s a way of saying, “I’m here for you. I’m listening. I’m your friend.” Sharing a coffee is like pressing pause on the day—a brief, beautiful moment where time slows down and connection takes center stage.

And let’s be honest—could anything be more Italian than choosing between a ristretto, a macchiato, or a lungo?

Meet Chiara B.

Chiara Borghesi is not just a translator and Italian teacher—she’s a passionate language lover who’s been helping people fall in love with Italian for over 25 years.

Her unique teaching style is all about connection and real-life experience. Forget big classes and boring classrooms—Chiara’s classroom is the city itself, with lessons unfolding in sunny piazzas and cozy cafés. Learning Italian with her feels more like a conversation with a friend than a traditional lesson!

This unique botanical workshop blends language, scent, and Etruscan history to create a rich, multisensory learning experience that boosts memory and deepens cultural understanding.

CHIARA’S TEACHING METHOD: Italian as a Living Language

Forget crowded classrooms and rigid schedules—Chiara believes the best way to learn Italian is out in the world, living the language as Italians do. In Siena, her lessons unfold among cobblestone streets, sunny piazzas, and lively cafés.

Your journey begins with “Coffee with Chiara”. Seated at a local bar, you’ll learn how to introduce yourself, start a conversation, and pick up the subtle, unwritten rules of Italy’s beloved coffee culture. It’s not just about vocabulary—it’s about understanding the rituals and rhythms of daily life.
From there, the lessons continue on foot.

Chiara’s “itinerant classroom” takes you through Siena’s rich history and traditions. One day you might be practicing Italian while shopping at the market, chatting with a local artisan, or tasting regional delicacies. With every step, you’re not just learning Italian—you’re living it, surrounded by the sounds, scents, and spirit of Tuscany.

For those seeking an even deeper connection, Chiara offers the exclusive Herbarium: Words and Scents. This botanical-olfactory workshop pairs language learning with sensory exploration. By blending Etruscan history, the Italian language, and aromatic experiences, it enhances memory and makes learning even more vivid and meaningful.
