I am a non practising Barrister, having practised in Ireland for a period of almost ten years. I moved into English language teaching and worked as a teacher preparing students for all of the main English language exams including the TOEIC, TOEFL, ILETS and the Cambridge suite of exams before working as Director of Studies. I have an involvement in developing materials for the International Legal English Certificate examination and currently develop and deliver bespoke training programs internationally in language and legal skills training for international student lawyers, qualified lawyers, members of the judiciary, ambassadors, members of the diplomatic corps and those having an involvement with aspects of the legal profession. I lecture in Universities on Legal English for Academic Purposes and cross cultural legal skills training, and I work on programs in Global Clinical Legal Education. I am a qualified civil and commercial mediator and have post graduate qualifications in development studies, training trainers and project management. I've been involved in EFL in one way or another all my working life and enjoyed every aspect! I spent many happy years in the classroom teaching a range of nationalities, ages and levels and also several years as a DOS (which was much more of a headache!) I was a teacher trainer for many years too. I've done a lot of work with exams and was an examiner for Cambridge ESOL. I now do a lot of item writing for several different papers which I find very stimulating. My greatest interest in recent years has been in writing and I'm lucky to have published quite a lot of materials. These include SkillsWork a higher level integrated skills book for Delta which came out earlier this year. I also really enjoy writing readers. EFL has been kind to me and through it I've met some amazing people. These days I spend most of my time writing and I'm very happy doing so. Long may it last!
