Get the book, together with the appendix. You will get a wealth of material to play, practise. Really good layed out, step by step method. When you finish vol 1, you can play any standard in a really decent way. Don't rush. Have been using it for a while now. Always find something new

This is very helpful. Just what I’ve been trying to write out on a piece of paper myself lately. Thanks for putting it together! Very much appreciated. ❤ To make it more fun for my teenager, I am trying to think of ways to make these simple exercises into a song by making the top note of each chord a melody note of a short tune like Mary Had a Little Lamb. Have you done anything similar to this idea of mine? If there’s a video, what’s the title? I’d love to watch it with my teenager.

Can we play 7th on the top instead of the 3rd in 7:23 ?

This is a beginner lesson? Good grief, it'll take five years for me to get to beginner level! 😭

Hang in there. Jazz piano teachers usually use the word “beginner”as someone who has some years of piano in general, often in classical music, preferably with some music theory. That’s what I am, and I started my jazz education just 1.5 years ago. That makes me a beginner. I still had to review many hours of theory and had to learn new jazz terminology to make sense out of this kind of “beginners” lessons. Learning to count all the intervals instantly anywhere on the keyboard is something that helped me at the beginning. It’s tedious but pays off big time. Make sure you hear the difference, for example, between a minor 3rd and a major 3rd, or minor 7th and major 7th, and so on with all the rest of your intervals. Go further than an octave. Do flat 9th, sharp 9th and so on. Be able to play the root of any key with your LH and 3•7 with your RH. Play those three notes with your LH. Do the inverted version of this practice as well. I’m talking about a few weeks to several months depending on your piano playing experience. After that, you might find this video not so much challenging. Believe in yourself, you can do this! ❤
