Bonjour!
I’m Prisca and this is Guillaume, we created Idiom’Arts in 2016, an immersive French school, after years of travel through various countries such as Malaysia, Australia and Spain.
I hold a Master’s degree in teaching French as a Foreign Language (FFL) and aim to create diverse French teaching experiences, much like I had as a global traveller for over a decade.
