Preparing For Your Tutorial:

Reflection is an important part of the learning process – every student needs to take time to think about their progress. What have you achieved this term? What do you need to work on in the future? What are your short term and long tern goals for your English language development and your Legal Studies? Come along to your tutorial prepared to talk about these topics and bring with you all your self study material – homework and independent study that you have been doing throughout the last 12 weeks.

Your tutorial is also an opportunity for you to voice your opinion about the course. Did it meet your expectations? Why?/Why not? How could the course be improved? Take time out to respond to the British Council questionnaire sent to your LUISS email address and talk about these issues with your teacher during your tutorial.
