Supervision

I really appreciated the fact that we were able to meet on an equal footing and in a relaxed manner and that you always took time to answer my questions! This is not a matter of course and I think that some professors could learn from you.

I would like to thank you for your great help. I have often learnt more from our conversations and discussions than I did from some lectures.

Your kindness and availability in offering assistance, without my having to directly ask, as well as your guidance throughout the thesis process and your openness to assist with challenging situations, made a profound difference.

I always found your supervision to be very pleasant and helpful for all the written work I have now done with you – a big compliment! 

I got to know Sam as a very open and competent supervisor, who responded to my ideas and at the same time helped me throughout the whole process, especially during the discussions. He was always able to give me good approaches to solve my problems.

Teaching

This is the best seminar I've attended at university so far.

The seminar is a perfect blend of challenging, motivating and fulfilling. The content is extremely exciting and linked to current affairs.

I feel like you focus on the learning process, which helps me to see my progress. That motivates me!

It made me so interested in the topic that I started reading the mandatory texts for the pleasure and not because I had to. 

The learning environment created by Sam was exceptional. His enthusiasm for the subject matter was infectious. He encouraged open dialogue and welcomed diverse perspectives, fostering a collaborative atmosphere conducive to learning. 

The teacher managed to create a pleasant atmosphere, even though the event was held via Zoom.
