Information about Sam
Born and raised in London, I studied History and Archaeology at the University of Southampton, with an additional certificate in French. During my time there I was part of a Cambridge-Harvard-Southampton expedition to Çatalhöyük, an ancient early-human city in Anatolia, Turkey, as well as the Southampton Skydive society! I didn`t skydive into Turkey, although I should have suggested it.
I work regularly in the film industry as a producer, writer, and director, and also have taught & tutored students for the Young Film Academy in skills related to my specialities.
In addition, I have conversational Spanish, having studied the language for some time after spending six months in Latin America five years ago.
Availability: Available during weekdays and early weekday evenings before 7:30pm. Only online during Covid-19.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: Having taught for the Young Film Academy from 2017-2019, I grew to be particularly strong at teaching writing, storytelling, camera-technique, acting, editing, and conceptual thinking/problem solving when it came to creating stories for the screen.
Previous to this I taught at the ELIM orphanage in Cusco, Peru, for two months in 2014, teaching English. The skills I learned there were related primarily to communicating when there is a language difference, which through conscientious listening and trust-building, I found to be almost a greater skill than merely learning the language.
I also taught a weekend workshop at the Young Film Academy in 2018 specifically for deaf students learning film, which used similar skills to those at ELIM. I really improved my abilities to communicate with young people in a clear and empathic manner, which enabled some fantastic films to be made during the workshop.

Thank you so much Sam for supporting my daughter under difficult circumstances and with little time. You did an excellent job and gave her the knowledge, skills and confidence to tackle her exams. Its be a very difficult year for those receiving exam results and she was understandably not keen to go through it all again, but you helped make that possible. We find out the results on the 17 December! Thanks again for your fantastic help and support. With best wishes Laura
