I think it's (ILEC) a very useful and practical way to gain knowledge of legal English and the Anglo-Saxon legal system. You were a great teacher who helped all candidates from our course to improve our knowledge and obtain the ILEC certificate. Result: Pass C1

JUDr. Jan Stárek; Senior Legal Counsel at T-Mobile Czech Republic a.s.

After spending over a year of my life living in the USA I never thought I would ever need another extra English course. However, when starting my professional career I realized that there is always a need for improvement, especially in such a specific thing as legal English. I am very glad that I had a chance to meet with Paul and attend his ILEC course, which helped me a great deal, not only to perfect my legal English skills, but also to improve my confidence and increase my career opportunities. Thank you, Paul. Result: C1 Pass with Merit

I really enjoyed the lessons of Legal English with Paul Cooper very much. He is very smart and intelligent and also full of humour. Unlike other teachers of Legal English he has actually practised law, which gives him the opportunity to talk with insight about legal topics and can lead discussion on legal topics with his students. He also knows deeply the procedures of ILEC (International Legal English Certificate) and his students reach very good marks. I myself reached C1 with Merit, which is the best mark possible. He is well-educated and well-read, so he has good knowledge of other topics also, and discussion with him is always enriching - both in language and in the topic discussed.

I really would like to thank you for everything you did for us! Thank you again for everything, it was really great and without you I would never have passed it. My friends would like to have courses of ILEC as well - I have already highly recommended you.

JUDr. Martin Havelka. Vrana-Pelikan, Prague

I would like to thank you for your lessons. Of all the English lessons I have ever had (at least eight courses) I find yours the most useful. I feel that I have really improved my English (except writing:-). I am joking - I know that writing is and always was my weakest area.

I have undertaken many English courses during my studies and working career and I can say that your course was absolutely the best one - in fact, the only one that helped me to improve my English considerably. I am sure that I would not have passed with C1 if I had not attended your course. Thank you very much.

Mgr. Veronika Slobodová. Public Sector Lawyer, Prague

I would like you to know that I have passed ILEC. The most surprising for me was that I did best in reading and then listening. But anyway, I’m very, very happy. I found the exam very difficult, especially the listening part and then reading - so the results really surprised me.
Thank you so much, you have been fantastic

JUDr. Ing. Ivan Barabáš, Lawyer

I found the contents of the course very useful and practical for my future practise; I now realise how many mistakes I commonly make when I write a legal text! (e.g. overusing the passive form and -ion words, too long sentences).

Mgr. Jana Poddaná, Lawyer

I am pleased to say that the lessons and materials were very helpful in improving my legal English. I try to apply the ‘rules’ you presented us with everyday at work.
