Photography Basics
Instructor: Al Mierau

Teri:
"Our instructor Al is wonderful. He is very knowledgeable and provided the guidance we needed to improve our photography skills."

Sharon:
"I recently purchased a new SLR camera and had very little knowledge of what a SLR could do.  This class made me more aware of the capabilities the camera had and also, the fact I had to try and use them."

Kelly O'Connor:
"This is the fourth time I have taken this class, and every time I take it, I learn something new. Al is a fantastic instructor. He answers posts promptly and is a wonderful mentor. We had some very talented people in this class and I can only hope that everyone had as much fun as I did."

Beverly:
"I have taken Al Mierau’s 35mm Photography class three times. His lessons were revised each time in order to include current improvements. Because of this, each time that I took the course, I was able to better perfect my photographic skills. My family and friends have told me that my photographs definitely show this improvement.

"Al Mierau is an excellent teacher. Since I am a retired educator, I recognize it when someone has the natural ability to teach. It is a lot harder to teach a class on-line because one cannot see the immediate responses from the students. Not only does Al honestly critique each student’s progress, but also, he spends much extra time helping with individual questions asked of him. He even takes the time to research the answers in order to recommend more detailed instruction about the problem. In my case, I had the feeling that I was sitting in a real classroom where I could get an immediate response from the instructor.

"I have written this testimonial because it is rare to find an on-line teacher who is sincerely interested in the progress of his students. The course has been worth much more to me in dollars (other classes were much more expensive and required the purchase of an expensive text book, while Al includes all of the necessary information in his lessons without the need of a text book.) and time spent than if I enrolled in a comparable course.

"I am sure that you will enjoy Al Mierau’s classes as much as I did."
