LAW SCHOOL INTERVIEW MASTERCLASS

Built for the moment admissions are decided

Building on more than two decades of teaching at Alpha Academy, the masterclass responds to a growing number of students and families who want structured preparation for law school interviews, a critical step towards admission to top law schools.

Our first masterclass in Summer 2026 was fully booked. The Winter 2026 classes run from November to December, over 4 hours across Saturday and Sunday (2 hours each day).

01

Individual interviews

Structure and deliver a compelling response to the questions interviewers actually ask.

02

Group interviews

Join a discussion with confidence and composure, and know when to lead and when to build.

03

Your own Interview Manual

Reviewed by legal and education professionals. A companion in the workshop and a reference long after it.

OPEN SEMINARS · GUIDED BY PROFESSIONALS

ABOUT ALPHA ACADEMY

Two teachers, seven students, and a simple idea

We founded Alpha Academy in March 2002, not as a business, but as a place where good teaching could happen: where teachers could act on their convictions for the benefit of students, and where parents could trust the quality of teaching. We see teachers, students and parents as equal partners in a child’s education.

Today we teach more than 600 students every week, with around 150 overseas returnees each holiday period. Many students stay with us throughout their schooling, and our growth has followed the expectations of Hong Kong parents, now extending to the step from secondary school towards professional degrees.
