IMO good way to leanr it is using Guitar Pro - this program could teach you how to read music . One of my friedns had this problem an GP helped

A great way to learn to read music is to take it in baby steps. First learn the names of the lines and spaces of the treble and bass clef. Next read simple pieces of music, try Twinkle Twinkle Little Star for s start, and then build up to more difficult pieces. Also study different rhythmic note patterns and ALWAYS PRACTICE READING WITH A METRONOME!! It gets your timing down, trust me. Any other tips, just write back and I'll help.

I agree with the the Guitar Pro way. GET IT! GET IT! GET IT!

It is a great program. I have used it for building up speed. It has a speed trainer were you can select any part of the song you want and then it will repeat it over and over and get faster each time it repeats.

I am also using it for teacher guitar lessons and am using it to help my students get rhythm down and speed.

Go with Z88's response. Start simple and always use a metronome.
