Courses such as Corporations, International Commercial Transactions, and Mergers &amp; Acquisitions provided me with a deeper understanding of cross-border business law and introduced me to the practical and analytical approach that characterizes U.S. legal education.\u202fOne of the most valuable aspects of the program was the opportunity to engage with professors and classmates from diverse legal and cultural backgrounds. The LL.M. program pushed me to think critically, participate actively in class discussions, and approach legal problems from a comparative perspective.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">One of the most memorable experiences during my LL.M. was in my Legal Research and Writing II course. As part of the class, we were assigned to represent opposing sides in a case and, after submitting written briefs, we had to present an oral argument in front of the professor and our classmates.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I was randomly paired against an Irish student who was a native English speaker, and at first, I was intimidated. I remember thinking that as a non-native English speaker, it would be difficult to argue persuasively against someone speaking in his native language, especially in such a competitive and challenging environment. Before the oral argument, I was genuinely nervous and unsure of myself.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">However, once the argument began, something changed. I became fully focused on the case and on defending my client\u2019s position. To my surprise, I was able to speak confidently, think quickly, and respond persuasively to the opposing arguments. The experience became not only a challenge, but also a turning point for my confidence. At the end of the exercise, the professor was impressed and awarded me the Outstanding Oral Advocacy Award, which was completely unexpected for me.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-8193 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"295\" height=\"393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Macioce-1-420x560.jpeg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 295px) 100vw, 295px\" \/><\/a>That moment remains one of the proudest and most rewarding experiences of my LL.M. journey because it showed me that determination, preparation, and confidence can overcome the fear of not being a native speaker.

Although the process was demanding, my experience in the LL.M. program provided me with a strong foundation in American legal reasoning and helped me develop the discipline and resilience necessary to face the challenge. Studying for the bar also reinforced my interest in international corporate and commercial law and motivated me to continue building a career that bridges different legal systems. Now that I have passed the bar, I hope to continue working in the field of international business law, particularly in areas involving cross-border transactions, corporate matters, and commercial contracts.
