This class will help hone learners skills in argumentation, logic, persuasiveness, listening, responding, asking pertinent questions and critically analyzing information.  As well, learners will identify how to use past cases to argue in support or against their current case (a skill lawyers need to focus on), how to differentiate facts and laws in a case, how to read, interpret and analyze the Constitution, and different ways that Justices may employ to understand the meaning of the Constitution (four corners, drafter's intent or present day interpretation).

I am a human rights lawyer for the United Nations and law school professor and have been teaching Constitutional law and human rights law to middle and high school student for the past 4 years.
