Reception
[edit]Reviews of MasterClass singing classes in The Hollywood Reporter[1] and Vulture Magazine[2] emphasized that the classes were advanced and required a substantial time-commitment. An accomplished writer from The Observer taking a writing course said it was well-designed and they felt a connection with the instructor.[3]
Vox depicted MasterClass as a company that milks the star-power of famous talent.[4] In contrast, a journalist from Paste Magazine said the TV writing class they took was "profoundly useful," had high production value, and was a streamlined approach to learning the topic.[5]
The Verge noted that while the subscriptions last a lifetime, each course has little replay value.[6]
