Q&A for How to Practice Guitar

I would start out by practicing major scales by position. So, maybe start out with the C major in the open position, then a C major in the second position. Go on to the fifth, seventh, etc.

Yes, a metronome is helpful when it comes to practicing. It's useful for learning timing and switching finger positions.

Absolutely, yes. You're never going to improve if you don't put the effort in to actually practice your chords, scales, and finger positions!

The most common chords you should know are D, C, E and E minor, G, A and A minor.

As far as sheet music goes, there is sheet music in Braille, I think. As far as playing would go, or seeing what your guitar teacher is doing with his/her hands, the only advice I could give you is make sure he/she knows about it, and you can work out solutions where your hands are moved by your teacher to teach you the various positioning, movement, etc.

The difference is that blues has a set chord progression (1,1,1,1,4,4,1,1,5,4,1,5), but jazz does not have to follow that. Jazz is also played with a swung rhythm.
