What our students say about our teachers

I want to take more courses with StrudelmediaLive!

—Arturo (Mexico 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 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)

I just wanted to express my gratitude to you for that community portrait class with Olga. She was so lovely, as were the other students. I learned so much about other photographers and feel so inspired walking away from the class. It got me out into the world, asking strangers to take their photos which has been a dream of mine to get into and I’m excited to see where it might take me.

—Shannon (Arizona)

Anita's course gave me the opportunity to learn more about photography, and also about myself. She was always so willing to help us and guide us to the best ways of narrating our feelings and thoughts through photography.
