What our students say about our teachers
We had a great course with Olga Ginzburg. She sparkles. She’s enthusiastic, encouraging, and lively as a teacher. We were all sorry that five weeks flew by so quickly.
—Lisa (New York)
Edward is a lovely person who gives his time and skills generously and is committed to maximizing the results of the book or zine. It was exciting to start the class knowing nothing about InDesign and to end with a book at the printers! Thank you Edward!
—Ilene (New York City)
I was happy to have discovered StrudelmediaLive and the Cameraless Photography class with Daura and Samanta! Thank you both for the enthusiasm, knowledge, and hard work you put into the class. I appreciated the materials you put together for each lesson — they were really thorough and looked wonderful — and that you posted them quickly. Thank you also for your observations and insights that you shared with each of us based on our individual styles and concepts. I was happy to have been in the class and expand on my knowledge of cameraless processes. You make a good team! If you teach another class or have exhibitions, please let me know.
—Marta (US)
This class was really exceptional — Stefan was extremely well-prepared, very thorough and taught with great enthusiasm and care on a university level; great assignments and class critique plus post-class emails. This was on a new level of online learning.
—Lisa (New York City)
Elizabeth is a wonderfully patient teacher! I am excited to now have an object in my hand that I believe not only reflects my images, but connects and combines them into a story.
—Barbara (Zurich)
