- I can confidently lead a group, I can take care of group problems and hopefully encourage the group to have good attitude to be able to be successful.
- I can play the guitar quite well. I am able to play quite complicated riffs, chords and fingerstyles in the guitar.
- I can play to quite high standards as I project my instrument's sound and play calmly. It doesn't sound cut off or distorted.
3 Weaknesses
- I can't sing while playing guitar. I find it difficult to multi task when playing guitar.
- After a a couple of hours, I start to play worse and worse until it sound horrible.
- I can be quite irresponsible when it comes things such as attending in-school meetings or outside school to practice.
3 Technical Exercises
- My personal exercise before playing the guitar - https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Guitar/Technical_Exercises I go back down again after and I do this 4x
- After the warm up above, I warm up even more using the pentatonic scale. This awakens my fingers to be able to play more complicated riffs.
- The next exercise is what Mr Ellis gave me.
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 on the bottom e string then you move up a fret and a string repeated. When you reach the top E string, you go back down strings up to the bottom e string but still moving up a fret each time. After reaching the bottom e string, you go back with the same pattern.
SMART target
I will perform confidently and as fluent as possible on our final performance in year 11. I will do this by practising as much as possible at home and at school in order to achieve my target.
