About Me

My background is in Teaching and Policing and I have taught at Universities (e.g. University of Essex, Brunel University, University of Westminster, University of Salford) and Colleges of Further Education.


Tutor Experience

I am a qualified teacher and have been teaching for 30 years, most recently at an A level college (Law). Topics covered include the English Legal System (e.g. Parliamentary Law Making/Criminal and Civil Court systems/Judiciary/Legal Precedent/Delegated Legislation/Statutory Interpretation), Crime, Tort, Contract, and Human Rights. I have also written a series of 'topic tests' for Human Rights Law at A level standard.
I also teach Criminology and Ancient History (I am a member of the Roman Society, and the Classical Association).
I have taught at four universities, including subjects such as Law, English as a Foreign Language,and Pre-Sessional (Pre-Masters Law/Academic writing).

I also tutor Law courses online, and have been doing so for 19 years with the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives (CILEx) and Cilex Law School (CLS), and currently tutor and teach subjects such as Criminal Law, Civil Law, Criminal Litigation, Succeeding in a Legal Environment, Tort Law, Disclosure, Contract Law at A level and Degree leveI. I am the Chief Examiner for Criminal Law and the Lead Writer for Tort Law (CILEx Professional Qualifications). I also conduct live revision events throughout the the year for CILEx/CLS.

In face to face or online teaching I am passionate about my subject and am innovative in the way in which I teach, to ensure that the student learning experience is second to none. I offer a (no obligation) free introductory chat so you can see if you want to start lessons.

I am enthusiastic and provide detailed feedback when marking scripts and mock exams, in order that the student can gain the maximum benefit in order to improve and realise their full potential.

Client Reviews


My session with James was a complete game-changer! I was drowning in essay questions, and James not only helped me understand the law in a really interesting way but also provided a ton of ideas, feedback, and shared some fascinating cases. It made a huge difference in my approach to the essay questions. Thanks so much!

I really enjoyed our lesson and writing the 20 marker essay with the structure and everything needed to guarantee an A/A* was worth it :)

Testimonials

just wanted to update that I got an A* in law!!! Thanks so much for your help! It’s 100% thanks to you and practice, I don’t think I’d have gotten anywhere near that if I was just relying on my law teacher :) Harry 18/8
