I wonder if you could give me some advice about the best summer programs to improve my english. These are the options I have: "Introduction to Legal English" in the International Law Institute in Washington, DC; "American English for Students of Law" in Yale; "Legal English for LLM Students" in Boston University and an Intensive Eight-Week Program in Harvard, this last program is NOT about legal english. Do you think that I should go to Harvard although the other courses are specially for lawyers and this one is not?
What are your thoughts? Have any of you taken some of these courses?

This is a reply to my own post hehe. I really would like to go to Harvard in the summer and then to NYU in the fall, but I'm worried for not learning Legal English, What do you think ?

Let me add my two cents, I took a general English course at Harvard some years ago, and I was very happy with the classes and the level. The class was small (about 8 students) and the teacher was happy to customize the class to our interest (i think almost all of us were grad students).
I haven't taken an English legal class, so I can't compare

Hi !
I am looking for a program to improve my english and mainly my legal english in order to prepare my self to enrol in a international LLM.
Please let me know what was your decision in this matter, you will help me a lot.
I was looking up the program in Cambridge but it is only 3 weeks, and I was hopping to do at least a 6 week program.
Thank you !
