Bio
Gary Lee Walters is a lecturer, tutor, author, event speaker and provider of one-to-one tuition. Gary was awarded an LL.B. 2:1 with Honours from the University of Glamorgan, and a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education (ML7) from Cardiff University (Distinction).
When not facilitating learning at FE or HE, Gary commentates on his specialisms – sexual & computer offences – at legal websites and peer-review magazines. His article Voluntarily Intoxicated Consent – Rape or Regret? was published in The Barrister, issue no.50. He is currently working on other research areas, within his speciality. His work has been reviewed and cited by leading criminal barristers.
As a successful Operations Manager, and more recently due to a career change as a Tutor and University Lecturer in Law, Gary maintains audience focus as an educator through delivering innovative, interactive learning in an informal legal educational setting, whilst sustaining high standards in terms of pass rates.
Gary strongly believes in legal education for all, and to that end founded StretLaw™, an online platform for legal distance learning and an informal setting to publish legal material. Still in its infancy, the site attracts thousands of visitors weekly, has guest articles of notable value by Solicitors, Barristers and law students. StretLaw™ is sponsored, among others, by Routledge Law (Taylor & Francis Group) and LexisNexis.
He is a husband and a father to two wonderful children and lives in Cardiff, although his roots stem from Oxfordshire. In his spare time, he enjoys sketching, painting with oils and watercolours. He is an enthusiastic player of Squash and Tennis events.
Once upon a time, he was known to grace the Oxfordshire hills, roads and swimming pools competing at club level as a Triathlete. He plays the guitar and is a competent lyricist having composed songs for local artists. His youngest daughter also enjoys composing songs and thus far, has two to her name, whilst his eldest daughter enjoys competitive swimming.
Gary proactively encourages debate and organises events based on law and legal education. He welcomes roles as educational consultant, giving best advice on how to engage the student in the 21st century, and accepts commissions as an author.
