What our students say about our teachers


I am a huge fan of live online photography classes, having participated in a dozen since 2014! Through inspiring and encouraging critique from instructors and discussion with other students, I have seen my own work and that of others grow, focus and refine. Another benefit of these classes is the opportunity to meet and interact with others, near and far, who, like myself, are not able to participate in a New York City classroom. I have enjoyed Anja's classes so very much; her expertise is impressive, her enthusiasm contagious!  
—Lisa (New York City)
Thanks for a really helpful class! I enjoyed each session — well designed, with the right amount of photo critique and theory — and I feel much more comfortable handling my camera now. You offered great atmosphere in the sessions and provided really useful feedback and practical tips. Crucial for myself: Photography is getting closer and closer to my heart and I'm eager to keep my photography practice going and keep shooting almost daily to improve – and to find my voice as a photographer. Thank you for helping me taking these next steps! Hope we see each other in future classes!  
—Stefan (Vienna)
I must say that I really, really enjoyed — and benefited from — Edward’s InDesign class! Not only did I learn how to use InDesign, but I also received feedback to help me continue working on my book projects. Over the past year I have learned that participating with other image makers is an essential part of my photography practice. I particularly like the way Strudelmedia classes combine valuable skills with individual attention.  
—Grace (New York City)
I really enjoyed taking “Architecture and Narrative” with Marianne — she is a very, very inspiring teacher and I want to take more courses with StrudelmediaLive.  
—Arturo (Mexico City)
I wanted to let you know how much I’m enjoying Jolanda’s class. She’s a wonderful teacher and I love getting the notes and images she references in class. Looking forward to the photo transfer to fabric process!
—Kathy (New Jersey)
