Paul taught me to DJ from scratch a year ago. I love house music but, as I’m in my 50s, I didn’t know if I’d be able to pick it up. Paul was really helpful, patient and encouraging, and broke it all down into bite-size parts so it felt achievable. Now I’m playing at friends’ and family parties and have just done my first gig in a bar. Never thought I’d be doing that. Really glad I had Paul as a teacher and would definitely recommend him to others.
Paul is a great teacher with a wealth of experience in DJing and music. His knowledge and skills will ensure any students are in great hands to begin their DJ journey.
Paul combines his patient, kind, and empathetic teaching style with a lifetime of DJ experience.
Paul guided me through the early stages of my DJ journey, and I now have my own slot on a radio station and gig regularly - testament to his great teaching!View more recommendations
