    HI, this may sound like a stupid question, but what does this actually mean? I'm a student so I have a reference from my academic tutor, but I'm not entirely sure what I put here. Is it someone I worked for? Another lecturer? The thing is, I have had quite a bit of experience in the past for law, but it never been anything long enough to really warrant a reference.

    Any help would be appreciated.
