<p fr-original-style="" style="font-size: 16px; color: var(--text); box-sizing: border-box;">My name is Kay Lack. I have taught hundreds of people the craft of software engineering over the past six years. Many of them are senior engineers now, some of them in companies you would have heard of.

<p fr-original-style="" style="font-size: 16px; color: var(--text); box-sizing: border-box;">I also love to teach. It is the subject about which I am most passionate.</p>

<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A respectful and accepting colleague in this journey which is ultimately your own. I will give advice, but if you choose your own path I will not be upset.</li>
</ul>

Classes from A1 to C2 level of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).



A1-A2 Beginners
Let’s start learning Italian!
With this course you will learn the basic elements and key phrases of Italian from the very beginning. You might know a few words already, but what about making your visit more authentic by interacting more with the people once you are there?

The exercises and activities are aimed at building your confidence with key phrases, pronunciation, grammar practice, verb drills (present tense of most common verbs) and speaking/listening activities, but also with games and quizzes.

The syllabus may include: the Italian sounds with a pronunciation guide on the first lesson; formal and informal address; how to greet people, how to introduce yourself/ introduce others, ask for something in cafés and restaurants, giving/exchange details, understanding numbers and prices, talking about jobs and family, where you live; asking and understanding directions and other basic vocabulary when going around shopping; you will also learn some cultural traits and fun facts about Italians.
B1 - B2 Intermediate
Now that you know some Italian, why not improve your language skills and take them to the next level?   
The intermediate course is well structured with grammar activities (such as prepositions, combined articles and pronouns), verb drills (past tenses, progressive forms, future tense), readings with comprehension activities, recounting short stories, common idiomatic expressions, games and quizzes.

The syllabus may include: describing people, booking hotels, booking accommodation online and via emails, more about numbers, describing places, expressing admiration, enquiring about services such as public transport; talking about homes, finding a house; expressing likes and dislikes, shopping for food and clothes, expressing preferences, making suggestions, buying train tickets, understanding directions, describing situations in the past; making plans for the future.
C1 - C2 Advanced
The advanced course is designed for students who already know Italian but want to take their knowledge further in order to hone their skills in all aspects of the language learning.  
With the advanced course, the student will have the opportunity to learn the grammar acquired with the intermediate course, but more in depth with ad hoc activities. The course will focus more on speaking activities: short and medium length articles at the beginning (and progressively longer articles) are used as conversation topics in order to hone vocabulary and grammar skills. The course may include writing tasks about specific topics which the student will discuss during the class with the teacher.

The syllabus may include: saying what you have done recently, saying what you can do, referring to events long ago, making suggestions, understanding and giving instructions, making comparisons, giving reasons, asking for and giving advice, talking about holidays, understanding the weather forecast, making plans for the future.

In January 2024 alone, reports were published about the SRA taking enforcement action against 3 firms and 4 individuals for failure to comply with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017. The fines issued for these non-compliances total over £570,000 plus costs. The absence of staff training, or requirement to complete additional training, was noted in a number of these cases.
As a manager of a law firm, or more crucially an MLRO or MLCO, the ultimate responsibility for the firm's compliance, including with the MLR 2017, lies with you. It is your responsibility to ensure that the firm puts in place, reviews and updates compliant policies, controls and procedures. You must ensure that the firm maintains an up to date practice wide risk assessment. You are required to ensure that your employees are regularly given training on the MLR 2017 and associated risks.
If a breach occurs, the SRA will take a wider look at the firm and identify any supervisory deficiencies that may have contributed to failures by fee earners or support staff. It has proven that it will not shy away from holding to account managers, compliance officers and MLRO/MLCOs for failures by their firms to comply with requirements of the MLR 2017.
This course will cover the following to assist firms MLROs, MLCOs and Management with fulfilling their AML management responsibilities:
How to comply with your obligations and stay compliant
FWRA – linked with PCPs
Mandatory AML Policies and Procedures - SRA have concerns
Training and supervising staff
Audits
SRA requirements
Reporting SARS
POCA/TA
Fulfilling reporting officer and compliance officer duties
Target Audience
The online course is suitable for MLROs, MLCOs, firm management and those supporting these roles.
Resources
Comprehensive and up to date course notes will be provided to all delegates which may be useful for ongoing reference or cascade training.
Please note a recording of the course will not be made available.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION

Louise Buckley  has worked in publishing for well over a decade. She was inspired to enter the publishing industry after completing an MA in Creative Writing and then spent a hugely enjoyable year working as a bookseller for Waterstones, wishing that she could have a hand in publishing books.

After a year working at Dorling Kindersley, she then spent almost five years working in the commercial fiction division at Pan Macmillan, where she published a mix of commercial bestsellers and award-winning authors.

Most recently, she was an Associate Literary Agent at Zeno Agency Ltd. As an agent she represented a roster of commercial and literary fiction, including Anne Griffin’s When All is Said, which spent five weeks at number one in Ireland and sold into 17 territories.

She is delighted to be working with Hannah at Hannah Sheppard Literary Agency.
Louise is looking for:-

Literary and upmarket fiction that focusses on the underdog, the repressed, the suppressed. Louise is especially interested in novels that represent working-class people or children going through difficult circumstances (think Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart, My Name is Leon by Kit de Waal or Boys Don’t Cry by FÍona Scarlett).

Irish literary and book club fiction. Think Claire Keegan, Louise Kennedy or Anne Griffin.

In commercial fiction she loves novels set during the Second World War, such as The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christi Lefteri or The Midwife of Auschwitz by Anna Stuart. Louise recently read and loved The Last List of Mabel Beaumont by Laura Pearson and would love to see anything in the same ‘older person going on a journey’ category, a more recent The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.
Louise had a lot of fun publishing a ‘pet fiction’ novel as an editor (Molly and the Cat Café) and would love to find an author who can write an Alfie the Doorstep Cat/Dog.

She has a soft spot for novels featuring time-travel or parallel universes, a ‘what if’ that plays around with conventions. At the literary end this would be books like Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes or This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. At the more commercial end Louise loved Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister, Dark Matter by Blake Crouch and Oona Out of Order by Martina Montimore. She also enjoys novels set in the real world but featuring a hefty dose of magic or the supernatural. They can be commercial or literary, present-day or historical. Think Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch, Threadneedle by Cari Thomas, A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness or The Gifts by Liz Hyder. And also cosy fantasy in the vein of Legends and Lattes or The House in the Cerulean Sea.

Cosy or humorous crime. Recently, Louise absolutely loved Over My Dead Body by Maz Evans. When she was an editor Louise published the hit Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll and would love to represent incisive, intelligent suspense written by authors such as Jessica Knoll and Gillian Flynn, or something a little more subversive and blackly comic like My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite.
More generally, Louise would also love to see novels with a disabled protagonist or someone (like herself) who is living with an invisible disability. As an ex-primary school teacher, she also warmly welcomes submissions from teachers, especially if the submission falls into one of the other categories she has listed. Following-on from this, she enjoys reading stories that follow a ‘beating the system’ narrative.

Horror. Louise is currently really enjoying the horror resurgence and would love some more horror for her list. She is looking for all types of horror from the more literary, suspenseful horror along the lines of Andrew Michael Hurley to the more commercial like Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix. Louise is also a big fan of horror mash-ups, especially body transformation horror such as Nightbitch, and horror mixed with, say, vampires, in the vein of Hungerstone or The Lamb. She would also love to see some dark academia. Think If We Were Villains or In My Dreams I Hold a Knife, and is a huge fan of gothic horror, so would love to see something that’s a modern-day Shirley Jackson or Rebecca.

Louise is NOT looking for:
-romance
-romantasy
-epic, traditional fantasy
-space opera
-straightforward women’s fiction
-children’s fiction of any kind
-non-fiction

Louise would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first three chapters or 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document.

(In addition to the paid sessions, Louise is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 

By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.

The submission deadline is: Tuesday 18th March 2025
