Hi everyone! We started this blog to be able to:
- Share who we are, what we do, and what we’ve been doing to help LL.M. and other learners learn more about law while improving their law-related English.
- Connect and share ideas with others in the global community of those teaching legal English.
Stay tuned. There’s more to come. But while you’re waiting you can meet the Georgetown Legal English Faculty.
