Get your apples ready, online school is in session and Dustin Hoffman, Serena Williams and James Patterson are teaching.
They will teach their craft online with the launch of new company MasterClass, a new San Francisco-based company – making it possible for anyone to learn directly from the world’s best.
In its first set of online classes, two-time academy award winner Dustin Hoffman teaches acting, no. 1 ranked women’s tennis player Serena Williams teaches tennis, and world’s best-selling author James Patterson teaches writing.
“We’re students. The first year. The first five years, the first 10 years. We’re students after 50 years. I never like to give advice, but I wanted to teach what I wish someone had taught me,” said Dustin Hoffman.
“I wanted to make my class feel as though you’re right there on the court with me. It’s like getting a private lesson,” said Serena Williams.
Accomplished performer Usher and renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz will debut their MasterClass in the coming months with more classes to come throughout the year.
