What our students say about our teachers

Allen Frame is that rare teacher who makes you see the world differently. He’s deeply intellectual and brings a richness to class discussions by weaving in his vast references to literature, poetry, and other art mediums in ways that have changed how I approach my work. Beyond his expertise, he’s genuinely kind and incredibly generous with his time and knowledge. Taking his class has been one of the best decisions I’ve made.

—Susan (Colorado)

I enjoyed our recent class tremendously! I learned a great deal and feel stretched. Much gratitude to you and Edward for providing inspiring discussion, feedback, and super class content. My fellow classmates shared amazing art projects. I loved the global perspectives we had.

—Kathryn (Colorado)

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)

Kai’s classes were terrific. The group was a good mix of levels of experience. I learned a lot, and realized how much I have yet to learn. I was inspired!

—Bob (New York City)

I really feel that the classes I’ve taken with StrudelmediaLive have given me the confidence to keep putting my work out there!
