学员评价


学员一:

作为一名英语专业的学生,因为对法律感兴趣,故而参加此课程。在一期课程中,我个人的体验如下:其一,全程英文讨论,浸泡式英语学习对于英语语感的提升极有帮助。其二,小小的学习班中,每人都有机会参与讨论,因此每人的参与度很高。其三,简明英语作为核心课程,其相关原则在平时写作中亦适用,受益良多。其四,本课程虽名为“法律英语写作”,但所涉内容却不仅限于此,对时下法律界的诸多法律现象的研讨,其讨论方向及思维方式亦对本人启发颇深。

学员二:

总体感觉对我来说是有很大帮助的,现在我已经在发给客户的电邮中使用所学到的简明英语写作规则,期待新一期的课程。

学员三:

学完了系列课程以后感觉对我的英语知识和法律知识都有一些程度的提高,和白老师交流很愉快,是很棒的互动体验课程。
