Dear Pericles' team
I appreciate it so much that you chose me as a student of the month.
Your decision to choose me as a student of the month encourages me a lot to continue studying with much more enthusiasm, improve my legal skills further and complete the LLM program, which is very challenging one to be honest.
Pericles law center became for me not only a very good law school which teaches law at a very high level, but also an opportunity to change my attitude to studying process as a whole, because Pericles despite seeming simplicity while presenting materials (sometimes and only in my personal opinion) demand very deep analytical skills both when completing writing and reading assignments and discussing a lot of different US and UK cases.
Every time when I come to the Pericles' classes I feel that I'm in a professional environment with highly qualified practitioners in an international center of education.
You help me to build my career and feel confident that I do exactly what I need.
Thank you

We chose Sergey Gurin as our student of the month for his amazing perseverance, hard work, and ultimate amazing success!

When Sergey first started in Pericles LL.M. program, in Fall 2012, he was really challenged by the English level and difficulty of the courses. His first semester grades were awful, so Professor Dent and Professor Mendelssohn actually advised him that he was unlikely to succeed and encouraged him to drop the program.

But Sergey didn't believe that he couldn't master it. He took a step back and took several years to improve his English, figuring out how American law school programs worked, and then rejoining the LL.M. program in summer 2021, getting an A- in Legal Writing just for starters.
Since then he has been building on that success with consistent high grades, until this fall, in International Asset Recovery, he got the top grade in the class! What an amazing improvement, Sergey, and we are so glad you proved our professors wrong!

Congratulations Sergey! We are proud of your hard work
