My teaching is centered on creating a dynamic and engaging learning environment that actively transforms complex legal material into understandable and memorable concepts.

I achieve this through an innovative teaching style that goes far beyond traditional lectures. You'll benefit from the strategic use of digital tools to visualize challenging topics, clarify intricate legal procedures, and make the law come alive.

My unique background, including roles with the International Criminal Court (ICC), allows me to integrate compelling real-world case studies and contemporary legal challenges directly into every lesson. This not only makes the material more interesting but also develops your critical thinking and professional perspective.

For example, in one straightforward session you will learn the difference between 'intention' and 'motivation' in a crime. How dishonesty applies in different financial crimes. The critical need to understand the laws on 'Disclosure'. What is an 'abuse of process'? The key difference between circumstantial and hearsay evidence? Tapping into lesser known crimes such as conspiracy and 'attempts'. How can you easily and accurately explain points to prove in different offences.

Crucially, I provide supportive, motivational feedback that is both positive and practical. My experience as a Criminal Psychologist informs a personalised approach, ensuring I can identify your strengths, address any learning barriers with effective memory and exam techniques, and maintain your confidence. Confidence is half of the battle!

I provide value-added expect engaging, supportive, and motivational sessions that equip you with both legal knowledge and the mental resilience needed to excel in both your exams - and as a solid platform to your future career.
