-My biggest accomplishments from the previous week was picking the chord voicings that i chose for the first half of the music sheet
-The challenges that i had were mostly from playing and trying to play through the chords on. beat, but i just kept playing through the areas where i had most trouble until i got it right at a slower tempo.
=Rhythm was the one i focused most when laying the piece, i use a metronome to stay in tempo.
-I want to work on rhythm the most, along with ear training, and question every piece of music i listen of what i what is going on, if the key modulated, or what typen of candence happened or anything like that.

For the first week i was having a bit of trouble playing scales since i didn't play much over the summer but i eventually played more complex ways to play scales for warmups, my challenges were to learn a new piece that Mr. Berstein gave. its quite hard ti play but i think I'm getting the hang of it. I'll listen to the audio to get a feel of the piece and learn some different chord voicing.
