Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

I hope to achieve many great skills in my craft. I need to work on music theory and how to better understand the instrument. I also hope to improve in using chords a lot more because that's something I have struggled in with my playing. I would like to obtain a better understanding of different scales and using them in my music. Overall I'm just excited to improve! Mentor or Instructor of lessons, camp, class, or workshop will evaluate the student artist and report back to Region 2 Arts Council.

Measurable Outcome(s)

I definitely improved on my guitar playing skills as I had hoped. I learned more about arpeggios, chord and scale theory, and improvisation techniques. Just all round learned how to handle the guitar better. I gained so much confidence through these extended lessons.
