What our students say about our teachers

Kat Shannon did a superb job. She is an excellent photography instructor. She is thoroughly prepared and is creative in her content and assignments/prompts. She has considerable depth in her photography knowledge and is articulate and stimulating. She is kind. I will definitely consider another class with Kat.

—June (New Jersey)

I really enjoyed Néstor’s class! He is great at giving us focus and direction.

—Ellen (New York City)

I enjoyed the class, and my confidence in working with InDesign is growing — I think that zines will be the perfect medium for me to realize some of my ideas. And thanks for all of your input. It helps me see things in a new way.

—Cynthia (New York City)

I loved the class and learned so much — not just InDesign technical stuff, but also design and photography aesthetics… it was awesome!

—Bobby (Washington DC)

As a photographer, I had many stories to tell but I didn't know how to evolve from photo-taker to storyteller. Anja generously shared her experience and through weekly assignments and her constructive critiques, she gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed. I'll always value her guidance as a turning point in my photography career.
