What our students say about our teachers
Bryan is a generous and attentive teacher, and he went to great effort to prepare multiple handouts full of resources. And he also had a nice way of framing the daunting task of getting organized.
—Denise (New York City)
Kat is a wonderful instructor and I really enjoyed the class overall. Her commitment to teaching and to the students always comes through in each class she leads.
—Tracey (Boston)
I LOVED Gianni’s lighting class. He is extremely nice and an excellent teacher. He is generous with his time, which is greatly appreciated. I loved the size of the class, and the quality/expertise of the teaching. I learned a lot, and I loved the fact it was an international crowd, with people from all over the world. And, I thought the class was reasonably priced. I was sad that the class ended.
—Gabrielle (San Francisco)
Thank you for the wonderful class, and for all the help with my video! It was such a nice group and I learned so much. I loved the class and I am so happy to have a video for my exhibition.
—Gabrielle (California)
