Teacher’s pick
Jennifer is a great teacher and has already helped me a lot to improve my legal English. All lessons are very well prepared and tailored to my specific needs as a lawyer working with international clients. So far, we have already covered various topics such as drafting contracts, giving a (legal) presentation, writing mails or legal memos. We regularly discuss issues that have arisen in my day-to-day work (e.g., in discussions with clients, colleagues or drafting briefs). Through Jennifer's engaging and interactive teaching style, I have already been able to significantly expand my legal vocabulary and avoid sources of error. I enjoy every lesson and I can highly recommend Jennifer’s classes for all legal professions.
