ILEC LEGAL ENGLISH COURSES

The courses provide a learning experience similar to studying at the University of Oxford. They strengthen reading, writing, listening, speaking, and reasoning skills in Legal English and feature authentic mock exams to measure progress.

There are three courses to choose from, and apart from the Script Correction course, each delivers exclusive live one-to-one distance-tuition.

STANDARD COURSE

A Standard Course module consists in four weekly assignments over a period of one month, and the full course comprises four modules. Each weekly assignment is devoted to working through the prescribed coursebook, and the assignment scripts form the basis of an exclusive weekly live private tutorial.

A tutorial lasts for one hour, as at Oxford, and is used to deliver individual tuition related to the current week's assignment scripts. This intellectual experience prompts fresh enquiry into the topics and further exercises the use of English. The last tutorial of the course is a complete mock Cambridge ILEC exam with a live speaking test.

There is one item required for the ILEC course:

Krois-Lidner, A., International Legal English, with three audio CDs, C.U.P., 2006. ISBN: 9780521675178.

PROFESSIONAL COURSE

The Professional Course includes the features of the Standard Course together with comprehensive colour-coded script analyses. These provide detailed corrections, explications, written comments, and teaching notes for each assignment script.

SCRIPT-CORRECTION COURSE

Apart from the audio teaching sessions and the speaking tests, the Script-correction Course includes the features of the Professional Course and is ideal if reliable Internet access is difficult.

THE ILEC QUALIFICATION

The Cambridge International Legal English Certificate is an advanced qualification that is valid for life. It corresponds to Level 4 of the Association of Language Testers in Europe (ALTE) and Level C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL). It is accepted worldwide by universities, commercial and industrial enterprises, government departments, and professional practitioners.
