“Mr Glover – what can I say. One of the nicest people you will ever get to meet, a DJ’ing hero, incredible tutor and true professional in every sense of the word. I can’t recommend Jon highly enough.”

Matt Graham, Rochester

Tara McDonald, Vocal & Performing Artist (and now DJ)

“What I can I say about working with the Kent DJ Academy? Only great things! A truly worthwhile experience with an incredible conscientious patient and encouraging teacher who would go the extra mile for his students.

In our sessions, he covered everything from setting up equipment, using different desks to helping me create my first live mix! He really “thought out of the box” to address possible problem scenarios that a DJ may face and was always 100% professional.

Truly priceless advice, a thoroughly enjoyable experience and gave me the perfect start to begin my DJ career and I loved every minute!”

Jim W, Tunbridge Wells

“Great session with you – thanks very much for all the wisdom you have imparted!! – best 3 hours I’ve spent in a long while!”

“Thank you for my Daughter’s tuition today, Lily loved it and your advice has given her even more ambition. We hope to see you again.”

Sam Deeprose

“10/10 couldn’t recommend enough! I’ve been using Kent DJ Academy for a few months now…. my tutor helped me go from knowing absolutely nothing about DJing to being completely confident club ready in a rapid amount of time. What ever DJ you wanna be his knowledge on it is incredible and he has hands on with the best equipment in the game… not only will he help you get better but when he thinks your ready he will do his best to help you get a foot in the door….. If you’re on the fence about starting DJing give them a call….I guarantee you won’t regret it.”

Colin G

"Jon’s technical knowledge was really helpful in getting me up and running and he really tailored our time together to what I was trying to achieve. Great service from a really down to earth and approachable fella – couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thanks Jon, see you again soon I’m sure.”

Nicolle Q

“I had my first session today with Jon and he is absolutely fantastic! Within 3 hours I went from looking at a lot of buttons, not having a clue! To being able to understand what they function and the amazing things you can do with them. So much was taught in 3 hours and so much was learnt. Extremely looking forward to my next session. If you want to learn how to DJ. This is the place!”
