Foundation Legal English Curriculum

Our Foundation Legal English Curriculum is designed for non-native English-speaking lawyers and law students who want to understand essential legal concepts and improve their general and legal English skills.

This UK-accredited programme covers 10 key areas of contract and business law alongside targeted grammar and vocabulary development, ensuring students build a strong base for further study or work in international legal environments.

By completing the Foundation level, you will:

  • Understand the structure and meaning of essential contract clauses, including formation, warranties, boilerplate clauses, and payment terms.

  • Learn about business structures and responsibilities, including sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies.

  • Explore core legal topics such as liability for negligence, nuisance, and damages.

  • Improve grammar from A1–B1 level, including adjectives/adverbs, articles, conditionals, modal verbs, future tenses, conjunctions, prepositions, pronouns, and phrasal verbs.

This level is perfect for building a solid legal English foundation before progressing to Higher and Advanced levels.
