“Sam is a wonderfully talented and professional educator. He’s thoughtful from start to finish. While teaching a series of creative maker workshops for youth to drop-in and experiment, Sam planned every detail that’s required for any successful event. From promotional materials to technology setup, he designed a welcoming and fun environment for any young person to start creating at any level. Sam’s approach to teaching is hands-on, guiding participants through step-by-step demonstration with an art form while also leaving plenty of time for the freedom to play. He knows how to captivate a room of youth by giving them options to explore their interests with a variety of technology, tools, materials, and examples. Highly recommend any programming with Make with Sam.”
