Institutions use The Law School Operating System as a stand-alone course or as part of an already-existing program (on a mandatory or voluntary basis) in the following ways:

• A Pre-Orientation course before classes start.
• An Orientation course for incoming 1Ls.
• A mandatory or optional Academic Probation course.
• A course for at-risk students who otherwise would not receive academic support. 
• A complimentary course offered to prospective admit students.
• A course offered in first-generation professional programs.
• A weekend skills brush-up workshop at the beginning of the semester.

It's easy! 

1. Contact me here or email me at [email protected].

2.  We'll schedule a Zoom to discuss your needs and pricing. 

3. You select the course that best fits your needs, or we customize a course just for your institution. 

4.  I'll confirm my availability.

5.  I support you and your students and teach them a study system to achieve their academic goals and thrive in law school, the bar exam, and beyond!

• An eighty-page follow-along student Workbook with examples and practice materials. 

• Metacognitive question lists for your students to ask themselves as they start, perform, and assess each study step in the system.  

• Competency rubrics (called Skill Scales) for your students to assess their performance on each study step in the system and to save you office hours

I have been teaching law students since 2009 and I pride myself on delivering a dynamic and positive teaching experience where ideas are fostered, open communication is expected, students are respected, and feedback flows. Over the decades, I've enjoyed my colleagues in the Academic Support community across the country and consider them dear friends, mentors, and sounding boards.  I was present when the Association of Academic Support Educators was imagined on a napkin outside of a hotel at a conference my then-law school was hosting.  I have attended every AASE conference since the inauguration as an attendee or sponsor because I sincerely love what we do as legal educators.  I've served on boards and committees too numerous to list. Ask around or go on the academic support and AASE listservs--they'll tell you what they really think of me, my teaching, and my worth.  I am happy to provide references as well!  

Because my passion for helping law students understand their abilities is palpable. Working for myself, I have zero administrative duties at a law school.  That means I get to focus 100% of my efforts on letting your students know I am in their corner. I also adhere to Best Practices in Legal Education to maximize student learning.

For every module and lesson, I give students:

• The learning goals behind each study step.
• A definition of the skill involved in the study step.
• Examples of completed study steps in formats appealing to different learning preferences.
• A chronological list of how to complete the study step.
• Sample exercises to practice each study step with me.  
• Examples of how other students employ the study steps in varying orders or without certain steps. 
• Options to customize the study steps to their thinking and learning preferences.
