The lessons are in audio and video format to be used with the sheet music found in the practicejazzguitar.com website for members and in the store for purchase for non-members. The lesson material presented here is from years of teaching materials that I have presented to students of all ages and instruments. These exercises in my experience have helped many of my students understand and learn the jazz language. Most of them have become successful professional musicians. A new lesson will be posted every week in the Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Lesson Sections. Ron Jackson has over 30 years of teaching experience.
