Testimonials
- “I like the fact the videos are brief and don’t go over the same thing again and again- we can always watch them back again if needed. Also like how they’re not just ‘how to DJ’ videos, but explain how what we’re learning can be used to engage young people. Especially helpful for giving peri tutors ideas I think.” - Sunderland Music Hub
- "The training was perfect; clear, engaging and well-suited to our needs. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and developed the skills and understanding we needed to be able to introduce DJing into our music departments." - Music for Bedford Borough.
- “The team absolutely loved the session. I can definitely see us using DJing in our clubs and especially as a tool to engage young people in wellbeing support. The accessibility for young people makes it a really easy to use tool for building confidence and self-esteem.” - Lincoln YMCA
- "Thank you for the GCSE Music Spec CPD. Your expert teaching has helped me understand how students can plan and prepare a performance in line with the AQA specification and curriculum" - Head of Expressive Arts, Newark Academy.
- "Thanks for the training. M*** is already applying it in his classrooms, wants to get his own kit and keep the music hub going over summer so he can dig deeper!" Music Area Leader, Learning and Inclusion, Dorset.
Comparison of Serato and Rekordbox
It is important to recognise that Rekordbox require individual data on each software installation and do not support installation on school networks. It is appropriate for small scale installations where a teacher is willing to set up an account.
Serato do support educational establishments, provide IT assistance with school network installation, and do not have to collect individual student data. It is appropriate for full classes.
