Advert description
I hold an LLB from the University of York and an LPC MSc in Law, Business and Management from the University of Law, where I graduated with Distinction. I am a qualified solicitor who trained and qualified at Clifford Chance, having secured two Training Contract offers during my first year at university. I now practise as a Corporate Associate at an international law firm and have also completed internships at other Magic Circle, Silver Circle and US firms.
VACATION SCHEME & TRAINING CONTRACT APPLICATIONS
My main focus is helping students secure Vacation Schemes and Training Contracts. I provide one-to-one support with:
• Vacation Scheme and direct Training Contract applications
• Reviewing and improving application answers
• "Why commercial law?" and "Why this firm?" questions
• Competency and strengths-based questions
• CV and cover letter reviews
• Commercial awareness
• Interview preparation and mock interviews
• Case study and assessment centre preparation
• Vacation Scheme preparation and conversion
I have helped students secure multiple Vacation Schemes and Training Contracts at Magic Circle, Silver Circle and US firms. My approach is tailored to the particular firm and candidate, helping you identify your strongest experiences and communicate them clearly and convincingly.
UNDERGRADUATE LAW / LLB
I also tutor undergraduate Law students, particularly with problem questions, essays, exam technique, legal research and structuring arguments. Subjects include Contract, Tort, Criminal, Land, Equity & Trusts, Public Law, EU Law, Company Law, Corporate / Commercial Law, Financial Crime, Financial Regulation and Philosophy of Law.
For problem questions, I use an approach based on York Law School's Problem Based Learning (PBL) methodology: clarifying the key facts and parties, defining and analysing the legal issues, identifying targeted research questions, researching the relevant law, and applying that law to the facts to produce a clear, structured answer.
UCAS / LAW UNIVERSITY APPLICATIONS
I assist prospective Law students with UCAS applications and personal statements and have supported multiple students who went on to receive LLB offers.
Sessions are tailored to what you actually need. You can book a one-off application review or mock interview, or work with me over several sessions through an application cycle or university module.
