12th january 2016

Today our group went through what we are doing but i gave my tabs back to miss Onacko,  so mr fuller came into ur room and said i did not need to have the tabs and that i could listen to what jake was playing so i could create my notes

14th march 2016
me and jake went over route 94 my love whilst tao was practising his lyrics we were discussing how we are going to perform

  1. Zack. Please make sure that you come prepared to lessons with tabs ready to be used if you need. Speak to your instrumental teacher if you need to also. You can't afford to not play in a practical lesson due to not having tab, so playing by ear is a skill which you can learn and explore if you do forget your tab

    Thank you

  2. Zack, to get the timing correct I would suggest you try playing with the recordings of your songs. You could also try playing with a metronome (type metronome into google and there are free one online). When you are Jake were rehearsing 'My love,' what went well? What still needs work? How was the timing between the two of you?
