I have a BFA and two MFA's in theater, film writing and film directing. I learned more in a two-day workshop with Ela Thier.

At every session, you walk out the door with the knowledge that your teacher believes in you, in what you have to say, and that you are the best person to tell your story.

Your philosophy of non-competitiveness, your emphasis on community and doing for each other, was very refreshing. Not only do you teach but you empower, a much rarer thing.
DENIS MEADOWS

Ela's workshop gave me the structure and courage to bring what was in my imagination onto the page.  I'm deeply grateful to her.
