Bio

LAW SCHOOL STUDENTS
Master the three skills you absolutely need for success in your 1L year, but which law school will refuse to teach you! Those skills are 1) How to properly extract the "black letter law" from a case; 2) How to APPLY that law to a hypothetical fact pattern; and 3) How to prepare for final exams from DAY ONE of class. Do not wait until exam time . . . by then . . . it will be too late!!

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

Not all tutors are worth the same. My quest to find a suitable legal tutor has been surprisingly challenging. Hands down, Robert has stood out from the crowd since the very beginning. Robert is not a car sales man trying to dazzle with promises of services he cannot deliver. His primary objective is not to see how many classes he can bleed out of you before you discover you’re being led on. Robert is actually interested in providing a quality service to the student. He enjoys teaching and it shows. He is the only tutor that has ever offered a free evaluation session via Zoom/Skype to make sure there is compatibility between the student’s needs and the services he can provide as a tutor. If it is decided to move forward with classes, without question, one will quickly see that Robert is a very good teacher, well prepared, has an impressive and thorough knowledge of the subject matter discussed. It is a place where one can be vulnerable and say “I don’t know”, so that you can truly learn. I love the candid, “no ego” classes that are based on learning – not hype. With a clear conscience, I wholeheartedly, recommend Robert as a tutor. I feel classes with Robert is money well spent, investing in myself.

Straight to the point

I took only two classes with Robert and am looking forward for more as the methods of his tutoring are really unique. He hears-sees-senses the most hidden flaws not only in my English, but also in my conducting before the audience. He picks these flaws so professionally, shows them to me and teach me how to correct them so easy that it’s just amazing how those fixed little details bring a huge difference into my speech. I am very grateful for all his help and glad that he is my tutor.
