Environmental Law and Sustainability LLM: Learning support

Kingston Law School has an enviable reputation for high quality teaching. We aim to foster a supportive study environment to help you to successfully meet the challenges of the programme and achieve your academic and career goals.

Support comes in various forms:

• Interactive and collaborative teaching: We like to offer teaching in small group sessions in a relaxed atmosphere, encouraging close and friendly discussion between students and tutor. 
• Dedicated support: We will assign you a personal academic supervisor to guide you through the dissertation stage of the programme. There is also a course director and course administrator to provide a supportive and helpful environment for your study. Subject tutors are also on hand to provide guidance on specific modules and there is a student liaison office to help with any other problems or issues.
• Online support: Flexible learning is made easier by Kingston's online StudySpace. This innovative system means you can communicate easily with staff and course colleagues through bulletin boards and discussion groups.
• Peer group support: Kingston Law School promotes a strong study-group ethos. We encourage you to form small informal groups so that you can meet together outside the classroom for mutual support as well as information and resource sharing.
• Student services: The University's student support services offer advice and guidance on a wide range of subjects from finance, accommodation and healthcare to sports and fitness, as well as a careers service.
• Language support: International students can access plenty of language support, both before and during your course: 
  • Pre-sessional English language course – improve your English language skills and learn about study methods and life in the UK. 
  • English language development programme – after you enrol this free programme offers a range of academic English courses and tutorial support throughout the academic year.
