Please have a look at this sentence:
I'm French-speaking person.

Is this correct grammatically?
I would use an indefinite article this way:
I'm a French-speaking person.

Would you agree please?

    Yes, most count nouns require a determiner, and this is no exception.

Anytime you add a modifier to the noun, and you're not sure whether to use an article (definite or indefinite), remove the modifier and see what makes sense.

I'm person.

I'm a person.

Clearly, the second one is correct.

Therefore:

I'm a French-speaking person.
