Welcome to
French-with-Art

French-with-Art is born from my passion for both art and languages. I’m an English-French bilingual, artist, art lecturer, education designer and language learning fan.

Through French-with-Art I look forward to sharing my unique language acquisition method with other art lovers and Francophiles alike.
