Kyla's Essay Journey Videogame & study guide

Kyla's Essay Journey Videogame & study guide Not your average study guide! TL;DR launches its most ambitious project yet — a gamified map that walks rookie law students through essay writing from “where do I even start?” to “nailed it!” Think animation, interviews, videos, quizzes and surprises along the way. It's deep learning disguised as a quest! A long-time dream of mine was to work on a resource that would help students with their essay writing and deal with every single stage of that journey.

The Law Society  - Grades don’t define you: how overcoming setbacks made me a better solicitor Olivia reflects on the challenges of resitting exams, the importance of resilience, and learning the value of championing herself in the legal profession. Most people wouldn’t expect a solicitor to have struggled with GCSE maths. Yet, my first experience of advocacy was fighting for my place in sixth form after failing my exam. From that moment, I understood that my journey to becoming a solicitor would require more than just academic ability – it would demand persistence, self-belief, and an unwavering commitment to my goals. Retaking my GCSE while also studying for my A-levels was a challenge.  In hindsight, it instilled a resilience that proved invaluable throughout my legal training.  While grades are an important metric, they do not define a person’s potential. What truly matters is how you respond to obstacles and seek out opportunities to grow. Finding my place in the leg...
