Introduction

Robotics, computers (especially data science and programming), mathematics, and sports like chess and swimming have been central to my life since I was young. I hold degrees in physical education (specializing in swimming, canoeing, and as a FIDE chess arbiter) and computer science, with a focus on data science and statistics, and I was a Mathematics Olympiad winner at 17. I love teaching, making learning enjoyable by encouraging creativity and confidence. I simplify complex topics while offering caring support, ensuring each student can succeed in their own way.

We are so thankful we found Miss. Sam! My 3 and 5 year old are both very reserved and take awhile to warm up to people they don’t know. Sam greeted them like she had known my boys forever and for the first time ever they immediately went with a teacher! She taught my 5 year old techniques to swim stronger and my 3 year old picked up swimming without a floatie by lesson two. I highly recommend Sam. She is so sweet and loving with the kids and had fun ideas on how to get them to swim!

Sanam is very Kind and gentle with kids. The way she approaches my kids to teach them swimming is amazing. She speaks to them calmly, and both of my active boys listen to her, and follow her direction. I am so happy we found her.

Sam is absolutely wonderful. We signed up my granddaughter for 4x 1 hour swim lessons starting from scratch. She had never had lessons before and afraid of the water, especially sticking her head underwater. Sam quickly earned her trust and she was comfortable in the water in no time. I would highly recommend her for teaching any young child. She’s very patient and warm. We are very pleased and my granddaughter is confident now in the water!
