It was an awesome review... He gave me a lot of tips on things I have to get better, techniques I can use/improve, and my posture.

My overall timing was OK. But my note spacing needs work. I sound sloppy, but on time with the click because of that.
I tend to lean backward when I use my kick (Mostly because of the kit... When I switch to my acoustic drums, I need to pay attention to this, and train some balance). I'll try to put my throne a little back, to see if I can solve that.
My ghost notes were not clean... I just throw the sticks down, and hope for a few notes on the rebound, and that won't give me any definition or articulation. There a lesson by Adam Smith on ghost notes that can help me on that.
Focus on the De-Stupifying Left Hand exercises and the Push Pull Technique. My Student Plan already has those lessons, and I've started to work on them.
That's it... I'll come back later to post my exercises for today.
