You typically use 'essere' with motion verbs (arrivare, venire, andare, etc.) with the rest, u use 'avere. Hope this helps.

Verbs using "essere" as the auxiliary verb for forming the past tense are mainly related to motion, change, or state of being (ex. arrivare, diventare, essere). Verbs using "avere" typically do not involve motion or a change in state. To determine which auxiliary verb to use, consider the verb's meaning and the context in which it is used.
