modeling here destroyed my self confidence as a young teenager and I developed multiple eating disorders, leaving me with irreversible damage to my body. While you can argue that any modeling company can influence that, Hoffman made it clear they were looking for a certain type of person and poorly ...
As a recent Preparatory and Professional student, I was impressed by the knowledge and enthusiasm of every staff member. You ve all been encouraging and helpful. Everyone presented valuable information and taught skills learned from personal experiences. There is a palpable commitment to teaching wi...
This review will save you a lot of money. Please read all the way through! I would not recommend Hoffman to anyone who isn't already wealthy. If you have the money, you are "the next big thing". If not... oh well! They blindside you with new expenses constantly. First, I visited simply to ask about ...
Hoffman has made me feel very special and not only built my confidence, but also molded me into a better version of myself, a more professional and presentable version. The courses were one of the many things that helped mold me. Especially with the teachers, who are very supportive and give tons of...
I have had an amazingly positive experience with Hoffman International. They work with me to create and improve my professional modeling and acting abilities. The staff is always first class and responsive. They fully support their talent in achieving goals, whether that is to do commercial acting a...
I wouldn't recommend this place for anyone who isn't "average" model type. Kim doesn't seem to have time for the short students with bigger chest and short legs and a and few extra pounds. She made my child feel like she doesn't have what it takes. The guest speaker she has present in one of the cla...
This was a great experience to say the lease. Hoffman really takes the time to groom you in a way another company will not. They really want you to success and I love the family atmosphere.
Sadly I fell into the trap of Hoffman International and how great they are at selling themselves, I would never disrespect anyone in the program, I did it and I met some amazing girls but unless you re willing to drop thousands of dollars and be no closer to a modeling career then I would advise you...
Hoffman International Model & Talent Agency is a Five Star agency. The staff not only prepares you for the work that you will be doing, they also help in self confidence and being able to handle yourself professionally in all aspects of your life. I have had a wonderful experience working with Hof...
Loved this site helped with every thing so far and right around the corner for us
I contacted Hoffman almost four years ago after a friend recommended that my daughter look into modeling. The results were amazing, but probably not for the reasons that everyone might assume. Has my daughter modeled? Yes, some. Has my daughter been in commercials? Yes, a few. Has my daughter been ...
Thanks to Hoffman International and staff for making my little girl's dream come true! In this past year, she has had some really AWESOME opportunities to share her talents. We GREATLY appreciate Hoffman and everything they have done for us.
Hoffman International is a good school and agency. I think Kim Hoffman is an excellent business professional. Lindsey is a great addition to their staff as well.
This place is a scam. They wanted me to pay $1200 to take modeling classes . Modeling agencies should NOT make you pay for anything if they are legit/ really want to sign you.
Hoffman International is much more than a Model Agency, it is a team of professionals fully dedicated to make the best of you.
Carla has been able to develop foundation values and skills that have become part of her day to day life.
She carries herself with self confidence and willingness to achie...
Wish I would have read the reviews first. Don't sign the contract unless you can pay for both classes twice in one day or within a month. Make sure you have THE money and time to invest and health. I'm sure if you had loads a money you would go far in this. But for now us commoners gotta find a way ...
My experience with Hoffman International is unlike any other. In the few short months it was a tremendous experience of being able to learn, grow, and improve myself as a person, model, actor, and overall, a better citizen. It's been a pleasure meeting with the Hoffman staff, where they pride themse...
Hoffman Model and Talent Agency is a high-quality, top-star agency that I am blessed to work with as a commercial model and actress. Kim Hoffman, along with all other Hoffman staff members, has introduced me to a world that I have always wished to be apart of. Growing up, my passion for fashion, sty...
my name is Sydney Liperuote and I am currently in training to become a model at Hoffman International. So far my experience has been nothing but lovely, everyone on staff there is just so kind and helpful all the time. The class I take is very informative and fun, we learn very valuable informatio...
We have been with Hoffman International for 18 years now. My sons are now 20 and 10. Both boys started at age 2 after meeting Kim Hoffman. Between the two , my sons have booked Hallmark (each too many to count), Applebee s, Zinburger, Tide, Sonic, Executive Air Share, Borden Dairy , Gibson s, Schee...
If you've got the money, they've got the time. We've spent almost $3k on pre and pro syllabi that cover how they want you to behave etc. Extra class on c walk by owner. Professional pictures that they won't use in your portfolio, then want you to spend another $800 for a specific photographer and ad...
YES modeling is expensive BUT you get out of it what you put into it! Hoffman is an honest agency consisting of a staff that works very hard in dealing with honest people who are involved with producing results necessary for success BEYOND modeling!
Hoffman International is more than just an awesome agency and school. It is like a second home. With the warm welcoming hellos everytime you walk through the door! Hoffman has the best staff and they all teach their models everything a model needs to know as well as what they need to know to better ...
I am a model at Hoffman and I love it! I highly recommend it to everyone! The people there are amazing and, if you invest yourself, will help you to grow to your fullest potential. I have had many amazing opportunities through Hoffman. I have learned far more than I would have imagined including pro...
This review is only to educate you before you spend ANY money. I advise you to keep in mind that this is not to bring anyone down, but to inform you of what you will encounter.
If you are not in a position to or want to come out of large sums of money I ask you not to go. Yes modeling does cost mon...
Hoffman Model and Talent is the gold standard for modeling, talent and education to make you the best you can possibly be and excel in the industry. I was introduced to Kim Hoffman and her delightful staff when my oldest daughter, who was 12 years old at the time, had an interest in fashion and want...
Hoffman has provided a nurturing environment over the last several years for me. In that time I have learned a great deal about all aspects of the modeling industry and I gained valuable information on how to care for my skin and live healthier. With the training from Hoffman I booked a nationwide c...
I reached out to Hoffman to enroll my daughter for modeling. After I looked through the modeling class curriculum, I realized that I could benefit from the prep and pro classes, so I enrolled myself for personal development.
The staff at Hoffman are warm, always available to help, the class conte...
This place is a scam. I went into it for an interview and they told me i needed to pay hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars for their classes I didn't. I told my friends about it and 2 of them went in for interviews and wer3 told the exact same thing as me. They will take anyone aslong as ...
Hello, my name is Sam W. I have been taking classes at Hoffman International for around 13 weeks, and I am pleased to say that the experience was life changing. Everyone around me was very professional. Overall I learned a lot, and it was a great environment to be in. 10/10 would recommend as an ama...
I am so honored to be a part of Hoffman Talent , Valeri and Patti are the Best thoughtful and hard working bookers! It is so comforting to work with an agency that goes over and beyond what I could have ever expected. For example working with Garmin everyone on the photoshoot was so professional and...
My motto is to live a life full of abundance, love, happiness and no regrets! I've had modeling on my bucket list since I was a teenager, and with each passing year I felt this dream was becoming less realistic. So when my 15 year old daughter expressed an interest in modeling, I decided this was my...
Everyone that I have been in contact with during my time working with Hoffman International, have been exceptionally kind, genuinely sincere, and extremely knowledgeable about the industry. The top notch instructors have provided ongoing mentoring and coaching to empower me with the tools that I nee...
I just wrapped up the Prep and pro class at Hoffman and I loved it! I learned so many new things and became much more confident in the process. I grew as a woman and I especially learned that I can accomplish all of my goals. Kim Hoffman is so kind and so is the rest of the agency. I highly recommen...
I submitted my son's photos to them online and we were asked to come in for an interview. It was a 4+ hour drive, but we are familiar with the industry and know that is just what's expected. We made the commute, were told my son is extremely talented...and then told to pay thousands for acting/model...
We feel so blessed that our daughter has signed with Hoffman International. Every training and workshop they have provided has been so beneficial and our daughter has grown and learned so much about herself and about the business of acting and modeling. Her success is a direct reflection of Hoffman ...
I went into this thinking it was a legitimate agency looking for models. I could have been told that you need to do their costly classes before you do anything. It appears to be a school first. The information could have been shared before driving and hour.
Taking the Preparation and Professional modeling classes has changed me as a person and how I view myself and others. When I was looking for an agency, I didn't find an agency that I trusted until I found Hoffman International! They teach you everything you need to know to be a professional Model an...
Most of these reviews are either from people who don't know the industry OR are paid employees. This is not a legitimate agency, they make you pay thouands before they will "sign you". Now I'm signed with a real agency, I'm glad I passed on Hoffscare Ripyouoffnational
My 14 year old daughter, Isabelle, recently graduated from the Preparatory and Professional classes at Hoffman International. She really enjoyed the content of classes and getting to know the other students and teachers. She learned not only about the industry and how to walk the runway, but abou...
Hoffman has taught me how to take care of myself and has given me confidence that I didn t have before. I love the teachers, they were amazing! Hoffman taught me how to take photos and walk down the runway. For me, the Hoffman classes were a fun learning experience and it was amazing overall.
-Stel...
will over charge you for absolutely everything. classes offer no real value. this is overall just a giant money scam. absolutely DO NOT recommend.
Hoffman International Model & Talent Agency is absolutely the premiere Agency in the Midwest. Our 2 children have amazing opportunities and bookings, caring & professional staff & excellent classes. We have only had good surprises and gracious interactions. We LOVE Hoffman & all the wonderful people...
