Student, Nadia Krim shares, “At the start of my journey onto my law degree, I had a lack of confidence and could not understand much about constitutional and administrative law. I felt lost and almost wanted to give up. I shared my lack of confidence with Professor Marinos especially regarding my french accent and he reassured me straight away.  

“He was very attentive and extremely responsive to my queries and by following his advices, I eventually got to enjoy the module and greater my knowledge. Sometimes going beyond your job can have a great impact of someone’s life and that was the case for me. I am now a fully confident student being given the appropriate tool to succeed. Thank you Professor Marinos!”
