About Luke

**February 2026 Update** 17/20 of my 2 hour slots are booked. 3 Slots left!

I am 'Luke the Law Tutor' and have tutored law for approaching 15 years at all levels: Law Foundation, LLB, LLM, PhD, Law with Business. I also teach both the BPTC/BVC (Barrister Course) and the LPC/SQE (Solicitor Course) and boast an impressive 100% pass rate.

I know many consider law a difficult subject, so did the hundreds of students before they had tuition with me. However, in my experience, I think this is just down to the poor way in which law is taught in most Universities. If it feels like every lecture is just someone reading from a law textbook (or even worse, reading from textbook extracts they've copied into a powerpoint!) and every Seminar seems random as you jump from topic to topic without any real learning - then you are not alone.

Such ineffective teaching does everyone a disservice: 1) it makes the law seem hard and puts people off; 2) it cripples your motivation and your exam results suffer; 3) it is poor value for money!

Now, I can't promise to make the law fun. But I can promise to make it more accessible and easier to understand. I give real life-contexts and examples so the information sticks, and we practise actual exam papers and questions to build up your confidence and show you how the law really isn't that difficult after-all. This is why I've had students jump from a 55% to a 75% in just one term.

The law has developed over milennia; finely crafted and refined by judges over many cases. While it isn't perfect, it does make sense and it is (largely) principle-based and logical. Once you grasp the fundamentals, it all flows nicely - you just have to get the foundations right and not rush ahead.

*AI Update/Warning 2026*
Most of the problems I have identified in the past few years root to an over-reliance on AI by law students and the mistaken belief that the likes of ChatGPT, which is predominantly trained on google results and Reddit, is somehow legally omniscient. There is no legal expert on overwatch checking the outcomes of its predictive modelling which is why AI is frequently completely wrong (albeit convincingly so).

The concerning impact of this is that it lulls students into a false sense of confidence/knowledge which results in 2.2 grades. Not only that, but AI 'slop' is instantly recognisable by the experts actually marking your work and while turnitin may say 0% similarity, it's clear when AI has been used or relied upon - and the veneer of expertise the work presents is quickly pierced with your poor grade reflecting this.

For the avoidanced of doubt, I will say it again. Relying on AI for your legal education is akin to building a house on a foundation of playdough. While you might not recongise that the AI has failed to apply Section 62 of the LPA 1925 to upgrade an in personam right to a right in rem - your examiners will and so will your supervisors down the line.

In other words, if you actually want to have a successful career in law - university is the point at which you must develop your critical thinking and drafting skills which means it is ok to make mistakes as long as you learn from them as it is all part of the process. When they are not your mistakes, and you are doing nothing more than regurgitating the outputs of a predictive algorithm lacking in expertise, nuance and insight, you will never be able to know right from wrong; and critically, never yourself develop the expertise, nuance and insight that the profession and your clients will demand from you.

Availablility

I am a full time tutor and work throughout the year - reflecting the different start dates of Law / Professional Courses. My diary opens for the traditional academic year on the 1st of August and for the past 8 years I have been fully booked by the end of the day. I've tutored my average student for 3 years (usually beginning in 2nd Year, through to LLM and professional courses) though I am having an increasing number of students start at the beginning of LLB Year 1.

I am fortunate that my success, academic background and reputation means I am over-subscribed throughout the year, so please do not delay in messaging me to secure a place.

Important Points to note:

*In the interests of fairness, all students are limited to a maximum of 2 lessons per week*
*The standard lesson is 2 hours (I do not provide 1 hour slots, as such a short time is not suited for any legal topic!) and is the same slot every week*
*The hourly rate of £120 is inclusive of VAT*

About the lesson

As a qualified teacher and former head of department, I have an extensive understanding of pedagogy and its application to lessons. I have a particular specialism working with students with autism, ADHD and other conditions which impact upon concentration to ensure they maximise the most from every lesson.

Perfect! Luke is a reliable, efficient, and meticulously hard-working individual who delivers comprehensive and concise work.

When working through a practice question, Luke not only considered the specific textbook used in my course to ensure the response was closely aligned with the curriculum, but also delivered a well-structured and detailed piece of writing within 24 hours. His work was well-supported by direct quotations and accurate citations from relevant legal cases.

Perfect! Luke is on the more expensive side but compared to other cheaper tutors I’ve used he is 100% worth every pence. Luke is clearly an expert and knows the subject matter back to front, by working on my structure and being a bit more precise on my use of the law I moved from 2.2 in 1st year to scoring high 2.1 and sometimes 1st class grades. Currently 68% average. I have seen him every week for year 2 and year 3 and will use him also for the Sqe course as this has high failure rates. His explanations examples and law stories are memorable to say the least but really stick in your brain. I wish I started with him sooner he really is the best you can get.

Luke isn't cheap by any stretch of the imagination but I can honestly say he is worth every penny! Frankly, before we were paying £130 an hour using a top London tutor agency and I was more than happy to deal directly with Luke - Very impressed by his level of professionalism and expertise. Results exceeded all expectations

I'm so happy that I chose Luke to assist with my Law Coursework, I had also asked someone else to do it (£20 ph) and when their essay arrived the day before due date it was complete jibberish!! It would have definitely been a fail and I was in a complete panic. Luke saved the day and was professional and helpful throughout. I guess you get what you pay for! I will definitely be using you again!

When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?
I have been tutoring for well over a decade. What began as a few evenings a week alongside my degree studies, quickly developed into weekend tutoring while working as a teacher, before becoming a full blown career alongside my Phd in education.
Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).
My background is in law (I am a barrister) and education (I have an MRES in education and currently pursuing a PhD). I specialise in entrance examinations for 7+, 11+ (private and grammar) and 13+. I cover all areas of the law syllabus from A-Level right up to Degree, Masters and Professional Courses such as the Barrister Training Course.
Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?
Of course! We all have role models and all of mine happen to be teachers, too!
What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?
Owning a tuition agency, I have experience of this from both angles. The most important trait by far is the ability to create a bond of trust and respect between the tutor and tutee - but simply, if a student has a great relationship with a tutor then they will work harder and achieve more. This is often far more important than qualifications when teaching younger students, I had more trouble successfully placing university professors with several degrees than recent graduates that were enthusiastic and engaging. Of course, the 'Goldilocks' zone are tutors that tick both boxes - engaging personalities that get the best out of learners coupled with a solid academic pedigree. Alas, these are few and far between!
Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.
The notion that high stake tests such as the 11-plus are tutor proof is quite literally insane.
What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or still facing in your subject?
Law in particular changes every day, keeping on top of changes in the case law can be difficult. Thankfully, the legal curriculum as taught at university tends to be slow to adapt.
Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?
I am immensely passionate about private tuition - I have seen first-hand the enormously positive impact it has on students. I am also long enough in the tooth to be working with different generations of families I have tutored previously which is quite special.
What makes you a Superprof (besides answering this interview questions :-P) ?
Poor tutors do not last long in this profession, so those that have been around as long as I have tend to be able to cut the mustard. In this industry, results speak for themselves, and I have a 100% success rate with 11+ examinations which is quite special. I am grateful that virtually all of my work over the past 5 years has been solely from word of mouth.
