Introduction

Introductions

English is the weak link in many lawyers' careers. You can’t make it to a good law firm unless you have strong English communication, both in speaking and writing. You are likely to be judged by clients, peers, employers and judges harshly if you do not have good English communication. In High Courts or Supreme Court it is impossible to do well unless you are really good with your English communication.

Substantive skills often come after your language skill, and not having good English communication is almost surely going to block your way from having a great legal career. 

On the other hand, good English communication skills will open doors for you that are otherwise not available. 

I am sure we need not convince those of you who are struggling with English proficiency as to why you must learn it. 

We bring to you the most advanced course for lawyers to learn English - speaking, writing and communicating effectively and accurately, at a professional level. 

If you buy an annual subscription, you only pay INR 50,000. Inclusive of taxes. Please note that we expect to increase the price to around 1 lakh per year in the future, as we can serve only a small class size given the way the course is designed. 

Hard copy material will be provided to those who enroll for an annual subscription free of cost. An interest-free financing option from Bajaj Finance is available to pay in easy instalments. Get in touch with our team to discuss this further.

LawSikho 30-45 days refund policy applies to this course. 

Please note that while we are using legal material to teach this course as legal context is useful for you, we are teaching no law here. And please do not expect the teachers to teach you any law in this course.

What is the course methodology

• Audiolingual method - Using this method, a learner will be able to listen and speak much before reading or writing. It ensures that the session isn’t only focussed on textual understanding, but also comprehending the set data. 
• Oral and situational language teaching - This is based on a structural view of language. Speech, structures and focus on a set of basic vocabulary items are seen as the basis of language teaching. An analysis of English and a classification of its prominent grammatical structures into sentence patterns. It ensures that learners internalise the grammar rules. 
• Grammar translation - transition from controlled structures to freer practice of structures, and from oral use of sentence patterns to automatic use in speech, reading, and writing. 
• Task based language teaching
• Extremely interactive 
• Immersive method
• Language and content amalgamated and taught through various CLIL methodologies (Content and Language Integrated Learning) : 
• BILD - Bilingual integration of languages and discipline.
• LAC - Language across curriculum.
• EMI - English as a medium of instruction.
• FLIP - Foreign language immersion programme.
• Focus on assimilation and application.
• Task based explanation of concepts in order to ensure the thresholds are being met. 
• Weekly charts will be given and effective implementation of the same will be done.
• Weekly questionnaires will be shared, to check the understanding of the pupil. 
• A stipulated time will be allotted at the end of each class to ensure that the doubts/questions are being cleared in each session. 

What is unique about the course

• 3 classes per week
• Every week, you will work on one writing assignment, one editing exercise and one public speaking exercise based on a weekly learning objective
• We will work on a new theme every month, and cover a different legal situation or settings. For instance, if the theme in January would be cross-examination, in February it could be job interviews, in March it could be communicating with journalists and in April you may work on different kinds of notices.
• The goal of this course is not to teach you any legal work, but the English language and communication skills you need to succeed as a lawyer and these various legal tasks and situations only provide a context to this language and communications tutorials.
