What our students say about our teachers
Lesly's class was great, very inspiring and gave my daily life and family pictures a real purpose. I see the photos in a more artistic way now rather than just being there to document our life and family, and it feels good!

I have taken photography classes at most of the renowned schools and organizations in the US, but none are better than those taught by Kai McBride of StrudelmediaLive. He is an incredibly intelligent and gifted educator who goes out of his way to make every class a memorable experience filled with ‘aha’ moments. Kai has talent galore. Don’t miss his courses!
—Patricia (Bronx, NY)
The class was amazing…. Emile was incredibly insightful and had so much to share about writing, which I found extremely helpful. The readings were inspiring, and I really enjoyed the assignments and lectures. It was also wonderful to meet the other participants, and I loved getting to see everyone’s work.
—Genevieve (New York City)
To me, online classes have been a synonym for freedom. Freedom of being where I was, geographically. Freedom of expressing myself through the group discussions and learning by sharing with others and with Anja.
