    Private lessons in civil, private, criminal, international law by double master 2 student at Sorbonne et Assas

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    Hello everyone.

    My name is Clémence, I am 25 years old and I am a double master's student in Law / History - International Relations at the universities of Paris II Panthéon Assas and Sorbonne University.

    I teach law courses (Beginners - L3), in the following subjects:
    - in civil law (intro, obligations, family)
    - in criminal law (general and procedure)
    - in EU law (general, and substantive law)
    - in public international law
    - in English.


    My detailed journey:

    Currently, I have just finished my year of M1 double master's degree in Law / History specializing in International Relations at Assas and La Sorbonne, and I am therefore starting my second year of master's degree. I am the major of my promotion.
    I obtained my law degree, specializing in public law in Assas with an average of 15.5 / 20 and the mention Good.
    I did an Erasmus exchange in Luxembourg to specialize in international law and European law.
    I did my first year of law at Sceaux, Paris XI Saclay University, where I was doing a double course at the Grande Ecole de droit, specializing in international business law.
    Before that, I studied medicine for 3 years at Paris VII Diderot.


    My professional experience :

    I taught about fifteen students this year, some on an ad hoc basis, for others on a regular basis (you can also find some opinions of my students on my profile). I also gave courses under contract with the University of Paris II Assas as part of a personalized tutoring with a law student.
    I sincerely like to give law lessons, pass on my passion (yes, yes, it's possible to be passionate, law is great!) And allow my students to progress.

    I invest myself with each of my students, and I am keen to put myself at their levels, to listen to them and to accompany them as best as possible. Whether as part of an improvement, preparation for an application, exams, or to validate his remedies, I do everything I can to ensure that my students succeed and (especially!) Flourish!


    The course of the courses:

    I always start with a discussion with the student in order to identify their expectations and needs. Then, a methodological point is often required. The sessions are organized according to the student's workload (lessons and tutorials).
    I give law courses from beginner level to L3 level included, in order to begin, progress and excel in law.

    My vision of a successful private lesson is the organization of progressive sessions in two stages: first a transmission of knowledge and methodology and then a moment of dialogue open to students' questions.

    I pay a lot of attention to transmitting means of organizing and planning university work at different scales: daily, weekly, monthly and semesterly. This is why I usually start my private lessons with a work “planning” session, so that my students feel supervised and know when and how to work, by “cutting out” their future tasks.

    I also like to teach them different learning methods so that they can work efficiently and productively. In the first session with beginners, for example, I always come back to a “basic legal knowledge” section to enable them to follow and understand the internal legal system more easily (presentation of the classic vocabulary, the main authorities, the different branches of law, etc.). .).

    Then, I explain the legal methodology in detail (presentation of classic exercises such as the judgment sheet, the dissertation, the practical case, the judgment and article commentary). Depending on the subjects studied, I emphasize the most important points, the “expectations” of each of the Teachers, and the tips for better understanding the subject.

    Finally, private lessons must be, in my opinion, a space of trust in which students can feel comfortable to ask all the questions that come to mind, and also discuss their orientations, and express their difficulties. This is why I always take time at the end of the session so that everyone can ask their question, so that we can discuss together both the content of the sessions and potential apprehensions about higher education.

    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.
