As a newcomer to Jazz, this was an easy to follow course that covered some essential pieces while still allowing us to dive right in and start playing. I had been taught some of these "pieces" before, but was able to finally "connect the dots" here -looking forward to "Part II" in the new year.

Molly's classes are truly the best there is if you want to get better. She encourages discussion and questions. She wants her students to get better which is saying a lot compared to other guitar teachers out there. She is an amazing player and the class is very interactive. I couldn't be happier with this class.

There is a difference between an outstanding musician/player and an outstanding teacher. Molly Miller is both. Her lessons were extremely practical as she balanced the theory with the soul of guitar playing. I’ve taken other online classes from nationally renowned institutions and Molly’s classes were a notch above.
