What our students say about our teachers

Thank you for this interesting course — Stefan certainly gave us a lot of information and a lot to think about. I wish the course was even longer!

—Suzette (New York)

Zuzana is an experienced and inspiring teacher who motivated us a lot to find our true artistic voice by connecting with something essential and at the same time showing us many opportunities to be creative. I can’t believe that I could approach a very difficult personal topic and transform it with photography.

—Ha Thu (Vietnam)

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)

I loved Lavonne's class on mastering color. She is a selfless, inventive, and no-drama teacher whom I truly appreciated. I have taken many classes in the past and the teacher often wants to be the star … but Lavonne’s approach is to extend to the student a different way of looking at photos via color and, of course, light.

—Pat (Northern New Jersey)

I am so glad I signed up for this black and white class. Kai is a wonderful teacher. Not only is he organized, interesting, challenging and creative, but he goes that extra mile to provide us with very helpful handouts and resources! This class is opening up a whole new world to me!
