About French Accent

French Accent is a personalized French tutoring service based in Salisbury, Wiltshire. I offer one-on-one lessons designed to help learners of all levels build genuine fluency and confidence in French.

About Me

I'm Guillaume Petiot, a French native speaker and passionate French language educator. I grew up in France and spent most of my life there, which gives me a deep understanding of the language, culture, and nuances that textbooks often miss.

I remain deeply connected to French culture through frequent travels, films, music, and media. This ongoing engagement with contemporary French life means my lessons stay fresh and relevant, reflecting how French is actually spoken and used today. As a lifelong learner myself, I understand the challenges that come with language learning. I've seen firsthand how the right tutor can transform someone's confidence and ability to speak and understand French. That's what drives my commitment to making every lesson count.

My Teaching Approach

I believe real learning happens through conversation, not memorization. My lessons focus on practical communication skills from day one, combined with the grammar and vocabulary you need to build a solid foundation. Whether you're preparing for exams, learning for business, planning a trip to France, or simply want to master French, I tailor each session around your needs.

Why Work with Me?

As your tutor, I'm invested in your success. You get my full attention in every lesson, with personalized feedback and a teaching style that adapts to how you learn best. I create a supportive environment where mistakes are stepping stones, not setbacks.
