What our students say about our teachers
Thank you so much for this fantastic photography journey together! I will definitely miss our image & text class next Monday evening. It has been such a really inspiring course. I learned a lot from all of you and am really grateful for all the precious feedback you gave me about the project. I will keep them in mind while working on the next steps.
—Sara (Rome)
I have learned much from Anja and StrudelmediaLive classes. She and the other teachers are very well accomplished on the technical and artistic sides of photography, helping me to grow in both areas. Anja has a creative mind and is very pleasant to work with — very important traits for a photography mentor. I look forward to more classes with her and the other teachers.
—Jay (Oakland)
Liz’s bookmaking class was fabulous. She is a tremendous artist and an incredibly patient instructor, and she’s clearly an expert in her field. She is kind and friendly, and it was a terrific way to begin my Saturday mornings. I have many ideas for future projects!
—Kathryn (Colorado)
I wanted to let you know how much I’m enjoying Jolanda’s class. She’s a wonderful teacher and I love getting the notes and images she references in class. Looking forward to the photo transfer to fabric process!
—Kathy (New Jersey)
I really enjoyed Zuzana’s class. The subject matter was a 100% match for the type of work I’ve been focusing on lately, and Zuzana is an excellent teacher — prepared, knowledgeable, engaging, and funny.
