What our students say about our teachers

Online classes take many forms, but the best I've experienced have been live online classes with a small cohort of dedicated students and a committed teacher. I've used online classes to help push projects forward, solicit objective feedback from teachers and fellow students, and to explore new approaches to capturing images and building my skills.

—B Rhodes (Washington D.C.)

Néstor’s class was amazing. His presentations thoroughly captured the range of styles of still life photography and I think he was incredibly thoughtful with his critiques. I really enjoyed the class and am inspired to keep going!

—Jyoti (California)

I enjoyed Peter’s class “Creative Color Photography.” It was well structured and provided a solid foundation in color theory without going into excessive detail. He was well organized and provided stimulating class assignments and critiques. He was responsive to our questions and supportive of our work product. I certainly improved in my post-processing of color images. All in all a solid addition to the StrudelmediaLive class offerings.

It has been such an inspiring process taking classes with Samantha and Néstor. They’re such dedicated and talented teachers — I owe you both a lot of gratitude.

—MG (Brooklyn)

Today, sadly, is the last of Kai’s B&W class — it has been great and he’s an excellent teacher. I rejuvenated some of my Photoshop skills which have been dormant and learned a lot.
