University-Level Tutoring in Public International Law: Theory and Practice

International Law is a fast-growing area of law in an increasingly globalised world.

Taught by the Founder and Director of the World Moot on International Law and Animal Rights, this class combines Public International Law theory with practice. It taught through traditional lessons imparting substantive legal knowledge and legal skills training, including in the form of mooting exercises. We also work on techniques and strategies for assessments, and, to test the student's knowledge, engage in exercises in the form of mock assessments (essays and problem questions) that are graded by the tutor.

It encompasses areas of PIL such as International Human Rights Law, International Humanitarian Law, International Criminal Law, and International Law and Armed Conflict.

About Me

A public international lawyer by training, I earned my post-graduate degree in law from Oxford University and qualified as a barrister at the Bar of England and Wales.

After nearly 1.5 years training at international criminal courts/tribunals and 1.5 years running two courses on a Swiss LLM programme, I am now working towards my doctorate in animal rights legal philosophy and theory, at the Universities of Basel and Antwerp. I hold various scholarships/fellowships, and am thus funded by (the) Swiss, Belgian, and Finnish governments/research institutions.

I have set up and run various moot court competitions. As International Expert in Moot Court Training for the International Commission of Jurists and the Danish Institute for Human Rights, I founded, developed, and ran the first moot on international human and animal rights law, held at the national level in Myanmar. I am now the Founder and Director of the first world moot on international law and animal rights, comprising an international mooting competition and mooting/coaching training courses.

In my spare time, I work, pro bono, as a legal correspondent and moot court coordinator at the UK Centre for Animal Law, a consultant composing law and policy recommendations for the European Union on behalf of Dierencoalitie (the Dutch coalition for animal NGOs), and a legal and policy advisor to various animal NGOs across Europe. I am also a member of the Animals & Biodiversity Think Tank of the Global Research Network, and an Expert at World Animal Justice and at the Global Animal Law Association. I hold various other honorary appointments and memberships.

I also paint (because it's fun), cook (because I like eating), play guitar (because the habit remained, though the talent waned), and kickbox (because it's a great stress-buster).

My current favourite music artists are Cage the Elephant, Dr. Dog, Imagine Dragons, Modest Mouse, and Tame Impala (though I remain morally opposed to actually caging elephants or taming impalas). Nick Valensi is, to me, the best guitarist in human history, and Dani Filth has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard. Over the years, my most consistent sources of entertainment have been Stephen King’s magnificent story-telling, and the TV shows 30 Rock, Always Sunny, and What We Do in the Shadows. Some of my favourite films are A Few Good Men, Fracture, and Primal Fear, along with a host of war films.

I strongly wish to use my legal skills to contribute to safeguarding and promoting animal rights, and am constantly seeking new and meaningful ways to do this.

Ankita is an excellent tutor. She provided helpful insights and tips during our lesson. I look forward to future lessons.
Amazing tutor who really listens and answers fast whenever I have any concerns or questions. She helped me figure out a study schedule that works for me, showing she’s all about helping in the best way she can. She found time to help me on a Sunday before my big law exam, which was awesome. She has good knowledge on all the subjects we’ve tackled, explaining things in a way that makes sense. She is super nice and approachable, making the whole learning pleasant and fun. You can ask her anything, and she’s ready with the answers, making you feel at ease and supported. She makes the subjects interesting and fun to learn. I’m really confident that with her help, I’m going to turn my academic career around for the better. It’s helpful to have someone like her to guide me through stressful time.

Nesrine
Private Course in Private Law / Public Law / International Law
Holder of a Master II in International Law and currently preparing for the entrance exam to the CRFPA. I offer my private tutoring services in Law. The main contribution of a private lesson does not lie only in learning but rather to identify the methodology and know exactly what teachers expect to see on your copies. My method is based mainly on listening and dialogue so that I can analyze the student's situation and therefore provide him with an adequate methodology.

Methodology and law courses for undergraduate students
Student in M1 Public Law at the University of Paris-II, I give courses in law and methodology for undergraduate students. The courses are mainly intended for law degree students but are open to all. Depending on the needs indicated before the session, I can adapt to all requests and create tailor-made courses in methodology, constitutional law, administrative law, family law, contract law, tort law and other degree subjects. The goal is to help you master points of law that may have remained obscure and to better explain the course. To this end, I also offer help in carrying out tutorials. I can also prepare a detailed correction of an assignment that would have been sent to me in advance. Having completed part of my law studies abroad, I can also provide help with assignments to be submitted in English and more generally in subjects taught in English. Classes can be done alone or in groups depending on needs.

Christian
Planning on studying law? Want to know more about how the law works? Want to know how to write like a lawyer? Then this class is for you!
Hello! My name is Christian and I am a qualified solicitor back in my home country of New Zealand.I've recently moved to London and before I embark on my next professional adventure, I thought it might be a nice time to give back some of the knowledge I've collected over my studies and professional experience. I took great satisfaction when I helped my younger brother during his legal studies (and even more so when I admitted him to become a lawyer). I spent many years trying to grasp what the law is, how to write a 'legal opinion', how to write 'like a lawyer' - even how to 'think like a lawyer'. Surprisingly, all thise things are actually quite helpful even if you don't want to become a lawyer. Understanding the law can help you know your rights better, it can help you solve problems more logically, it can help you write more concisely and more persuasively. Anywhere you go or whatever you want to do, somewhere along the line the law will be involved - if ever so slightly. And the best part is, there is always more to learn! Even the finest judges, or the most distinguished King's Counsel don't know everything about the law (although they;d be pretty bloody close). So let me know whether you're studying law and want some help with your studies, whether you want to improve your writing or negotiating skills, whether you want to learn abit more about the law that affects you, or whether you want to know what its' like working as a lawyer. There are no silly questions in my class! (Please note that this class is not and cannot be constituted as 'legal advice', it is for educational purposes only!) Look forward to meeting you all, Christian Oh and if I haven't selected available times that would suit you better, please drop me a line and I'll see what can be arranged.

Teaching International Humanitarian Law at 2 Levels; Intermediate - Advanced
With over one year experience in teaching and a decade long experience with adolescents and young adults, I, herein, present my course in "International Humanitarian Law". In today's globalized world where the effects and repercussions of a conflict are not confined within a single state, it becomes crucial to know what rules are in place that regulate conflict and provide protection to those who are vulnerable. Aiming to mitigate and prevent human suffering in an armed conflict, International Humanitarian Law gives us answers to questions, such as: who can and cannot be targeted and under which conditions; at what times does a protected person lose protection; who is a combatant; what distinguishes a combatant from a civilian; and, what protections are available to those who do not take part in an armed conflict. Amidst the many interstate conflicts, such as, Ukraine-Russia, Iran-Israel and Palestine-Israel conflicts, as well as the intrastate ones, such as in Sudan, having a working knowledge of International Humanitarian Law becomes even more vital as it re-establishes one's trust in law and humanity at such uncertain times as these ones.
