Hello Helen,
often: for something that happens or one does frequently ,but not on a regular basis .
We often go to this restaurant; they serve great food.
usually: for something that happens or one does as a habit ,so it is more regular and predictable.
He usually spends his vacation in Italy with his friends.
always: for something that happens or one does in any case.
Whatever happens , he always arrives at time .
