Blog: 80 words- Please critique yourself and how you are doing in class. Are things you need to practice? What would you like to learn more of?

I think I’m doing pretty well with all of the things you are teaching me. I wont delusion myself into thinking that I am doing amazingly well but I think that I’m doing pretty well. I would love to do some work on more rock oriented guitar. Maybe learn some songs from Rage Against the Machine, or Buckcherry. I would also love to learn some more jazzy music. Perhaps not so many chords, but jazz riffs and chord progressions would be fun.

I'm doing alright in this class. I participate in class and always try my best. I have difficulty finding time to practice. I'm very busy with school work, so I will have to put more dedication into practicing during class. My main focus in this class has to be guitar. I always try my hardest, and have learned a lot in this class. When I first entered this class, I didn't even know how to hold a guitar properly. I have learned many different chords and how to strum. My main goals for next quarter would be able to transfer from each chord faster and to be more on task. I want to continue to learn more chords and be able to play a song.
ReplyDeleteI know that I am not the best guitar player in the world and I am sure I'm not the best beginner in the class (Q) but I feel like I'm getting better. I do sometimes forget to write my blog like today, I almost forgot I had a blog to do. I can get better at playing guitar by practicing more at home (Which I don't do very much). What I need more work on is changing chords faster and I would like to learn more chords so I could learn to play more songs.
ReplyDeleteI think I am doing okay in guitar class, I think I could do a little bit better. I could improve a lot by practicing more during class and at home when I have time. Some things I could practice are remembering the chords because I sometimes forget the chords and strumming. I’ll have to practice all the chords more so I can remember them, then I might be better at playing the chords and then maybe I can play a song. I would like to learn more simple songs like the song we have been learning like “the Spanish song or “stand by me.”
ReplyDeleteI don't believe i've changed in playing skills all that much. Iv'e learned one new cord and half of a song that i cant even play that well. I really want my transitions to be faster. So I know I need to pratice alot more. But other than thsoe things, I believe I am doing farely well in this class. When I first entred this class I didn't think there were wrong and right ways to strum or to hold the chords..
ReplyDeleteI didn't know so much work went into playing this instrument.
Ah, self-evaluations; a time to evaluate yourself and everything about yourself...school-related, that is. Alrigtht, well, my personal opinion of how I do in this class is: pretty well (not trying to be egocentric in the least, mind you). I mean, I participate in class, I try to squeeze about 8 hours of total practice time per week, and I always respond to the blogs...I didn't say when though x3 Anyways, overall, I think I'm at a pretty good standpoint in this class, and hope to continue this reputation in the near future.
