There is a guy in Georgia named Bill Brown who has a company called 
musicbyear.com.  I just checked the site and it is currently under 
maintenance but the NLS carries most all of Bill Brown's instructional 
material.  All of his teaching is done on audio cassette.  Ive never used 
his lessons for anything but guitar, but it is a good place to start.  He 
has lessons for a number of instruments from saxophone to flute to penny 
whistle.  Call the music division of the NLS and I am sure they can help you 
if you choose to go this route.  They know the name Bill Brown.

Practice scales until you get sick of them.  Pick out a song you like and 
learn to play it from memory.  This will hehlp you learn note association. 
With lots of practice you will begin to know songs without even thinking 
about what note you are playing.

Write me any time if you have questions.
Michael
