Your rhythm is getting steadier with time and your natural instincts can usually keep you on beat. Try to go back to the basics if you want to improve further from where you’re at, it’s easy to learn new things but much more rewarding to actually master something. Really try to practice every day and do things like stick control so you can pay attention to your grip and rhythmic accuracy. Play stick control at 8th note=320 and go through the first 8 exercises without stopping. Try to play the piece we’ve been learning (etude I) at 16th note= 360. Play with the metronome using these tempi and really listen: make every note line up exactly where it is supposed to. Try to think about what you want to do with music in the future and use that to motivate yourself to practice.
