Don't try to get fancy. Just play something that is showing what you've learned in class.

if there's one things teachers don't like it's sloppy and flashy,

if you mix that much stuff together, it'll just be confusing for whoever's watching you. just play something straightforward that, as freddels said, shows what you learned
