    Jonny is a wonderful teacher. He's highly skilled, deeply understands the material, and holds back no secrets: he explains and demonstrates in detail, and makes everything, including scores and backing tracks, available for download. He makes a lot of stuff available for free, but I subscribed to support what he's doing.
