Perfect! Otto is pure class! I left our session feeling optimistic and confident about improving my DJ skills. Otto is an asset to Superprof!
Perfect! I had been taking online course, watching tons of YouTube videos and practicing at home for over a year by myself and making little progress. A few hours of hands on work and instruction from Otto gave me confidence in the foundations I needed to begin ramping up my skills and finding my own style. Otto's passion for music and teaching make him fun to work with and is well worth the time and investment.
Perfect! Otto is very knowledgeable and professional.
I highly recommend OttoPerfect! Extremely knowledgeable teacher. Knows his craft and was very easy to talk to and connect with. I would highly recommend his services to anyone regardless of their skill level. 10/10
Perfect! Great experience with Otto. He really helped improve my learning and explains things in a very clear and practical way. Highly recommend him for any session!
Perfect! Otto is an incredibly talented DJ/producer and an amazing teacher - in my first hour lesson alone, he covered the basics of setting up professional DJ equipment, Rekordbox software tutorial, fundamentals of music theory, technical aspects of the Pioneer CDJs and mixer technology, beat-matching and key-matching, harmonic mixing, and I was able to mix a few tracks by the end of the hour! I was thoroughly inspired by my first lesson and that night purchased equipment that he recommended (he also offered to help me set it up in my home). I cannot recommend Otto enough - if you are contemplating learning how to spin or produce music, book a lesson with him asap! It has been truly a pleasure and honor working with him, and I can't wait for my next session :)
Perfect! Otto was great! Throughly enjoyed my first lesson.
Perfect! I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Otto as an exceptional DJ and music production instructor. Although I have only been working with him for a short period of time, the impact he has had on my skills, confidence, and understanding of music has been remarkable.
From the very first session, it was clear that he teaches on a completely different level. His ability to break down complex concepts into simple, clear explanations makes learning not only fast, but incredibly enjoyable. He doesn’t just teach—he invests himself into the progress of his students. He pays attention to every detail, makes sure you understand the “why” behind every step, and tailors each lesson to your personal style, goals, and pace. It’s rare to find someone who cares as much about a student’s growth as he does.
In just a short time, I have learned more about DJing and music production than I ever expected. He has a talent for explaining techniques with depth and precision, while still keeping every session exciting and creative. It truly feels like learning from one of the best in the industry, not just a teacher. His passion for music is infectious, and it pushes you to want to get better every single day.
Without hesitation, I can say that Otto is the best instructor I have ever had—in any subject, at any stage of my education. His knowledge is unmatched, his teaching style is outstanding, and his dedication to his students sets him apart from anyone else.
I highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn DJing or music production at the highest level. Working with him has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my artistic development, and I look forward to growing further under his guidance.Perfect! My son works with Otto and absolutely loves him, below is his personal review of Otto:
I started out knowing almost nothing about DJing, and Otto completely changed that. He’s an awesome teacher, very skilled, smart, and genuinely passionate about what he does. I’ve learned so much, gained real understanding of all the intricacies of DJing. I now share his same passion and always look forward to every lesson. If you’re thinking about learning to DJ, Otto is the guy.Perfect! Otto understands teaching methodology and guided the intro class well. I'm excited to keep working with him!

Otto is a well experienced DJ/producer, Really easy to talk to and always full of surprises in knowledge of DJing!
Otto is an incredibly talented DJ/producer and an amazing teacher - in my first hour lesson alone, he covered the basics of setting up professional DJ equipment, Rekordbox software tutorial, fundamentals of music theory, technical aspects of the Pioneer CDJs and mixer technology, beat-matching and key-matching, harmonic mixing, and I was able to mix a few tracks by the end of the hour!

Ottos teaching style is exactly what I was hoping for. He is patient and explains everything in an easy way to help me learn and understand new techniques. I recommend Otto to anyone looking to learn how to DJ on any level. He's knowledgeable of it all and has made my experience smooth and exciting!
Before I found Otto, I did a lot of research to find a suitable DJ instructor for myself that would help me really learn the skills and have one on one sessions and I can honestly say that Otto is one of the best teachers I have had. Being a young professional but also knowing how to teach is not easy and not everyone can do it, but Otto does it effortlessly. Not only is he a great DJ and musician himself, but he has really grasped an effective way of teaching DJ-ing to students. He gives so much time to his students and will always make time to help out his students whenever he can. I’ve only had a few classes with him so far but I have learnt so much from him in this short period of time and am excited to keep learning from him. He really pays attention to his students and puts a lot of care into his teaching methods, always asks if there’s anything specific that a student wants to learn on top of all the skills he teaches. I would 10/10 recommend getting lessons from him as I have not found another DJ instructor that gives so much time, patience and effort to see his students succeed.
