– solid
> work on shifting your fingers quicker
> practice Hands Together
– broken
> check fingering
> practice Hands Separately

Better Place – sheet
– continue working on playing your Left Hand together with the Right Hand melody (top line)
– you can simplify your Left Hand to play and hold the lower notes instead of playing up to E
– awesome work playing to the second page!
– add a second note in your Left Hand on the second page to make the chord sound nicer
