FAQ's

💼 What can you expect to learn from criminal law lessons?

When you study criminal law, you examine how the legal system responds to harmful conduct and protects society.

  • Conduct and mental intent: Every criminal charge hinges on proving both a wrongful act and an intention to commit it.
  • Categories of criminal conduct: You will study offences against the person, property crimes, fraud, and public order matters.
  • Defences: Understanding defences is essential for evaluating the strength of any criminal case.
  • Sentencing and punishment: You explore the principles behind punishment — deterrence, rehabilitation, retribution, and public protection.

A private tutor can help you work through case law, essay technique, and exam strategy so you master each area with confidence.

💰 How much should I expect to pay for criminal law tuition in Portsmouth?

In Portsmouth, expect to pay about £25/h for an hour of criminal law tuition.

Pricing can vary based on:

  • The stage of study (secondary school, undergraduate, postgraduate, or bar prep)
  • The teacher's expertise and legal background
  • The duration and frequency of lessons
  • Where the sessions take place

Most teachers offer a free trial lesson so you can assess their teaching style before committing.

⚖️ Where should beginners start when learning criminal law?

Mastering these fundamentals makes every other area of criminal law far easier to study and apply.

  • Proving guilt beyond reasonable doubt: The defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty, and this principle runs through every stage of a criminal trial.
  • Building blocks of criminal liability: Most offences require both a prohibited act (actus reus) and a blameworthy state of mind (mens rea).
  • The distinction between criminal and civil law: Grasping this distinction helps you understand why criminal proceedings follow such rigorous rules.
  • Key legal defences: Knowing which defences apply in a given scenario is a critical skill tested in criminal law exams and mooting.

Once these basics are secure, you can confidently tackle more advanced topics like homicide, fraud, and inchoate offences.
