What our students say about our teachers
Many thanks to all of you who have accompanied me on my photographic journey with your great knowledge and empathy in the StrudelmediaLive workshops this year — embroidery with Jolanda Drukker Murray, cyanotype with Claudia Cortínez, the class about joy and pathos of everyday life with Allen Frame, and also photography as a pilgrimage with Kat Shannon.
—Barbara (Zurich)
I have never been more excited in a classroom than in Fred’s. His way of conducting the class, his references, and his general teachings have influenced and expanded my work in ways that make every project I start a complex and exciting endeavour.I entered his course understanding myself as a photojournalist and ended feeling that I could and should do much more than just photojournalism. I am proud to call myself one of his students and know that any person interested in the documentary practices (or just the human condition) will be greatly affected and changed by his ideas.
—Mayolo (Mexico)
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)
When will Marina Thomé teach her next class? She is wonderful.
—Lisa (New York City)
