Experience
I am currently working as a Personal Injury Consultant for a group of Hotels in N. Africa and I also teach English as a Foreign Language. I previously worked in private practice as a Personal Injury lawyer for 2 International law firms for over 15 years. One of my roles within these firms was the supervision and training of junior team members. I also provided training seminars and workshops to our Clients on a regular basis. I enjoy teaching and believe my knowledge and experience both as a Legal Executive and as a Solicitor would be invaluable to a student following the same path. I have spent many years preparing cases and attending trials both in the lower Courts and Court of Appeal. These are often skills that new trainees lack when they begin their first job. However, it is vital that new lawyers know not only how to apply the law but how to put it into practice. I want to help students feel confident when then enter the workplace. Knowing how to prepare pleadings, contracts, witness statements or documents for trial will help to give you a good start. I can help provide practical scenarios and examples that students can work through to gain confidence when dealing with a real file. As a TEFL teacher I can, not only help younger students ( I currently teach 9 - 15-year-olds) improve their English, I can also help foreign law or business students who wish to improve their skills in an English-speaking workplace,
