What our students say about our teachers

We just had our last class with Zuzana on the performative self portrait and I am feeling very inspired and driven to continue working on the self portrait — it feels very personal, in a true way. Thank you for giving me the opportunity!

—Eugenia (Berlin)

I wanted to say thank you for your wonderful classes. I knew I was going to enjoy it but didn’t realise how much. Your feedback and the open conversations with the other students was so insightful, it exceeded my expectations, hence I was happy to stay up til 2am!!

—Silvana (Australia)

Néstor’s class was amazing. His presentations thoroughly captured the range of styles of still life photography and I think he was incredibly thoughtful with his critiques. I really enjoyed the class and am inspired to keep going!

—Jyoti (California)

Fred is more than just a professor or a teacher. His words are honest, and his care for his work is deeply real. He treats his students as a collective force, not just individuals in a classroom. He truly sees their shared strength and believes in their voices, and he understands that their differences are a source of power. Fred is a genuinely real human being, and that is what makes learning from him so meaningful.

—Walaa (New York City)

Zuzana is excellent. She sees the potential in everyone’s projects and has a multitude of astute suggestions about how things are working and how to make them more effective.
