What students say about this course

Michael, USA

The practices and exercises make the process of learning easy. The guidelines are easy to follow, and the explanations are super helpful and easy to understand. I feel confident taking this course that I think I will come out being successful in DJing. 

Peter, Canada

Crossfader has the best online DJ tutoring courses available, period. I switched from another online DJ tutor to Crossfader and am very happy I did. Jamie has an engaging, easy-to-follow style and shares real-world experiences from his DJ career. Crossfader's courseware is well organized (I’ve done both their Serato and Rekordbox courses) and full of valuable content!

Ray, USA

Crossfader is THE BEST!!!  I’m new to DJing, and I had a hard time hearing the beat to mix. I signed up for the course, and Jamie explained everything so easy for me. He takes the time and shows you how to do every step. I can even beat match by ear now. I’m more confident in mixing now and learning my controller as I go. I will be purchasing the next course soon. Thank you Crossfader!

Your tutor

Jamie Hartley

Our instructor, Jamie Hartley, a seasoned DJ with over a decade of experience, began his career as a full-time DJ at the age of 16. Since 2014, he has grown Crossfader from a small UK-based DJ school where he personally taught aspiring DJs, to the renowned global online DJ school and community it is today. Through years of one-on-one instruction in a studio, Jamie has developed a foolproof and systematic approach to teaching DJ skills and techniques. Unlike other DJ schools, Jamie focuses on teaching the creative skills that make you stand out.
