What our students say about our teachers
I really enjoyed Néstor’s class! He is great at giving us focus and direction.
—Ellen (New York City)
Helena Goñi is an excellent instructor — knowledgeable, smart, supportive, and informed, with a wide knowledge of photography. I’ve enjoyed this class and would take another class with her.
—June (New Jersey)
Online classes take many forms, but the best I've experienced have been live online classes with a small cohort of dedicated students and a committed teacher. I've used online classes to help push projects forward, solicit objective feedback from teachers and fellow students, and to explore new approaches to capturing images and building my skills.
—B Rhodes (Washington D.C.)
I want to take more courses with StrudelmediaLive!
—Arturo (Mexico City)
