What our students say about our teachers

Zuzana is excellent. She sees the potential in everyone’s projects and has a multitude of astute suggestions about how things are working and how to make them more effective.

—Kevin (New Jersey)

I don’t think I can convey in an email just how much I valued Fred Ritchin’s “Advancing the Personal Project for Social and Individual Change.” I’ve never experienced a workshop quite like this. Fred’s honesty, his profound understanding of photography, of the business, of people, of history, his willingness to share his time and vast knowledge, as well as his willingness to meet us where we are — is priceless.

—Tracy (California)

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)

Just wanted to let you know that Kai McBride's class on B&W Digital Photography was GREAT. He structured and conducted the sessions in a very organized way and provided an abundance of useful information. The assignments were useful and creative. I would definitely take a class with him again.

—Barbara (New York)

What a great class — I learned a lot and found it very inspirational!
