[@lifebeginsat5061]

Thank you

[@amylynne1969]

Wish I could afford it. I love your spirit, ideas and knowledge. Thank you for this video. Beginner guitar player here. A terrible one at that! lol

[@w.allencaddell6421]

Ms. Lauren, In your style of strumming, the lightness sound like the intro to the song "San Francisco" by Scott Mckenzie. It's a very smooth strum. Btw, love learning from you, even if just on video. Would love to take actual lessons. I'm a paralyzed Disabled Veteran trying to get back out there, taking up music and playing along the way. Currently starting at Guitar Center this week but I seem to respond better taking lessons or even school from females. Myself, a girl playing guitar is freaking HOT! LOL! Thank you for your time and hope my message gets to you,,, Wayne A Caddell Jr

[@vodkaone1053]

Accents are great, and syncopation helps too.

[@gameon3602]

Best strumming video on YT for beginners ❤️❤️

[@LaurenBateman]

Aww thank you!!!

[@mintybiscuit]

I'm nearly 60, I picked up a guitar for the first time a month ago and my strumming has really progressed thanks to you! I can't stop smiling! My chord progression needs a little work though! Thanks so much for this tutorial!

[@LaurenBateman]

That's awesome!

[@oliviajordan7716]

I’m 40 just starting learning. It’s awesome!

[@michellejeaneden2083]

So cool I played when I was younger and too busy. I picked mine back up and its so cool that the videos are so easy to learn. How wonderful. Have fun.

[@aaronvincent9003]

Yesterday was my 78th birthday. I've been learning and playing guitar on and off without success. I was a computer coder and I was very good at that.

[@RSchannel777]

I'm 60, yeah I hate that number like bad. But I grew up with a headset on since I was 8 years old in the very late 60s. So much love music, just never had the discipline to play. I'm going to try this video alone, just try to get some strumming going and get my fingers working. My goal has been 10 minutes a day, quite reasonable, and I haven't even been able to do that. Oh well maybe inspiration this time will work

[@rohmichael2894]

I simply commend your passion in how you share your knowledge. Nicely done Lauren!

[@LaurenBateman]

Thank you so much 😊

[@sing-a-longwithron2136]

Hey Roh,.She's simply a for-real lady. Ya gotta love that! Or you're beyond repair. JMO. Best guitar teacher out there, me thinks. A tip: Record yourself, play it back, and just listen. You'll hear what other folks hear. Might not be what you thought it was? That happened to me. So I fixed it.

[@mikaiyadunbar9258]

THE FIRST TIP IMPROVED IT SO MUCH BETTER LOL

[@LaurenBateman]

Glad it was helpful!

[@carenphilemon6045]

Lauren , I have been taking guitar lessons for 2 years . This is what I have been wanting to learn but didn’t know how to explain to my teacher! I appreciate this so much! This lesson was so interesting and inspiring! Thank you!!

[@LaurenBateman]

Glad it was helpful!

[@albertmontes11]

Something new today dexterity, thin pick for strumming, using the carrot, and karate chop to the sound board, and placement of our fingers on 5678 spider practice . Thanks again!!!!!

[@LaurenBateman]

Have fun!

[@RickKersey-h9z]

15:32 first saw a guitar at age 5 it was so big I couldn't reach the strings . I took lessons when I was 12 or 13 but was more interested in working on my go-kart. I learned all those chords though. All through school and the Marine corps I still didn't practice didn't have a guitar. Add three great boys and a great wife but still no guitar. I was at work one day helping Mr Cho do some home improvements at a house. There was nothing in the house it was all piled up in the garage but in a closet in the kitchen there was a guitar, I asked Mr cho if I could have it and he said yes all them chords came back to me after I got it tuned up but could never play any songs I didn't know how thanks to you Lauren you gave me new purpose I know I have two guitars😅❤🎉 thank you

[@LaurenBateman]

Awww so happy to help you find your purpose with guitar again!

[@goodvibrations3802]

similar story, learnt as kid never picked it up for years then I did. You dont forget the basics the rest I am still working thru, but got comfortable with very mediocre for a while, dunno why, but today decided it was time to improve. And hey presto, the teacher appeared. I have other tutors i subbed to but could not really follow or take it in, not sure honestly if i just was not really interested at the time, but this teacher getting thru. Cool

[@ariellemasters3908]

Your a great teacher I wish you were mine please ceap making vids you were the first person to actually teatch me to play a note

[@LaurenBateman]

Thank you!

[@dearMamu70]

Hi Lauren! I am a 67-year old Filipina and really a first-timer. I decided to learn playing guitar because of this boring pandemic. Your video helps me a lot. Thank you so much! Although I still have a long, long way to go😄😄😄

[@LaurenBateman]

Best of luck! You got this! 😄

[@moisesperez4605]

Lauren, As a blind person, listening to you, you have open the my music experience a lot, definitely want to give you a tip, when you’re doing your tutorials, please keep this in back of your mind, that you might have blind individuals listening to your tutorials, and I would appreciate, when you wanna let everybody know about accord, please give us the correct fingering for each cord when you do that, you are doing it now, so keep up the good work love your videos. I actually love your tutorials, PS I love you calm demeanor, the way you have patience and I could hear your voice, and that is definitely soothing for people that are learning how to play the guitar, and it makes us not feel stress or with pressure we were doing any of the tutorials, thank you again.

[@LaurenBateman]

Hi Moises, yes these lessons show a diagram on screen. Many of my lessons I make the assumption that you know the chords. If you need specific finger placement instructions, I would highly recommend watching all of my chord videos. I go step by step in those lessons. Will give you a big advantage.

[@moisesperez4605]

@@LaurenBateman I do know most of the chords, like majors chords, minor chords, pentatonic scale, minor scale, major scale,. But most definitely, I’m going to go back and look at those videos that you recommended, just in case I’m not missing something, I will look into that. Right now I’m trying to learn some fillings, going from one cord to the other, and I’m going to see if you have any tutorials on that, I really appreciate thank you for responding to my message, and thank you my name is Moses for Northern California barrier thank you Lauren.

[@isomhunt7442]

I’ve been looking at guitar instructors for the last few years and trust me Lauren Bateman is the only one that is certified to teach and I guarantee success! She is the best! No if Ann’s or butts. And thank you from the bottom of my heart sweetie! For being a real guitar Teacher. For some reason the guy instructors all they wanna do is sing badly.

[@LaurenBateman]

You're so welcome!!!

I'm sure you meant "ands", not Ann's and the instructor has a name, and it isn't sweetie.

Fantastic to see encouragement for young and older one's, who won't always feel old but, need loosening up (just like anyone else)! Lauren is a very pleasant teacher. A diamond!

[@LaurenBateman]

Thank you so much Marion

[@sing-a-longwithron2136]

Hey Marion. Lauren's a natural teacher. Her unselfish contributions of her talents to us old folks (I'm older than you, I bet?) is invaluable. She's way better than diamonds, IMO.

[@chrisjanson4230]

Agreed, there's something about this lady I can't put my finger on but it's good, whatever it is. Makes me WANT to learn from her. Lovely voice too.

Glad you enjoyed the lesson. Hello Africa!

[@queenparrot]

Lauren…. You’re a natural !! I’ve been playing guitar over 50 years using the same old strumming patterns. I’ve always wanted to add more techniques and here in this video, you’ve magically taught them all - Relaxing wrist Accents Karate Chops (!) Crescendo I’m so eager to put all these to practice 👍♥️👍

[@LaurenBateman]

Wow, thank you! Glad to help!

[@sing-a-longwithron2136]

Hi Lily. "Natural" nails it! One never imagined that somebody would arrive here (this planet) with so much teaching talent, but she did. Thank your God! If you have one? I've learned so much from this lady that I just joined youtube. Not quite good enough yet to start playing & singing there, but I will soon. Assuming I live that long? LOL I'll be 80 next month. Yikes! If I can just keep my fingers and voice working for a little while longer. Reck'n we'll see? Merry Christmas.

So glad to help.

[@ronparker6489]

Hey Lauren. I don't know if you've read my posting about buying your strumming course next month, but I will. A lot of us old folks will be getting a 5.9% increase in our total monthly income, starting that month. Yippee! Beats no increase all to hell. And It will be totally cool having you available to teach me (and my little buddy) at any time of my choosing and more importantly, eliminate those pesky ads that routinely interrupt your "free" lessons via youtube. I've learned over too many years that they're ain't no free! Right? (You don't need to answer that. LOL) Finally, I'm an old am broadcast radio station manager and DJ, and I got my fill of ads about 50 years ago. Cuz I had to make them. Dang!

[@LaurenBateman]

I did see your post Ron. Congrats on the increase. Much needed and we'll deserved. The strumming course is great!

[@flyingsalmon]

Wow, this is one of the most difficult things to explain so fluidly and simply...and while I'm self-taught, this was extremely helpful and never seen this level of easy explanation on such a critical and yet complicated thing to get across. Thank you for your sharing your knowledge with the world.

[@takingoutthetrash1512]

you are such a good teacher... ma'am, god bless you for not BEING A HATER. I mean this and im dead serious because im a novice to guitar and i've been asking people who have been playing who i already envy for tips and tricks and demonstrations, seem like they dont want to. its like they learn it and they just want to keep it for themselves because only they want to be good and shine in making music. maybe to eliminate future competition (they've seen and heard me sing a little; 80s rock, country, alternative rock lol)... Your contents are gold and thanx so much for shearing your skills and knowledge. I join guitartricks, they never teach strumming, i cancelled, only you do, and i learn so quick from you. its my life long dream since my teens to learn guitar and maybe produce a song before i die (40 now), and i will not give up, and you're helping me so much... YOU ARE CHANGING LIVES, not only mine, im sure

I know that God will be pleased when I can sing and strum along with beautiful rhythm Thanks so much for your strumming tips, and the way you presented was so impressive. I did not know earlier that it was not necessary to strum all the strings.I will look at your next video on strumming once I have mastered my strumming on this video. My best regards to you.

Hi Lauren, I have never played a guitar in my life but always had the desire to learn. 2 years ago I took a Guitar for Vets crs for 3 months and was more confused at the end then when I started! I came across your page on KZbin and have learned and made more progress in 2 weeks then I did in that whole G4V crs. Although I appreciated their time and effort, not all teachers are created. Equal, I love the way you teach, how simple you help a novice pick it up. I watch your video everyday and practice at least 30min a day, feel very confident I will soon be able to play my 1st ever love song to my wife on our 47 anniversary, just 6 months away. God bless you dear for sharing your gift with the world!

[@erialc-vk9mf]

Hi, I just started playing guitar last year. I practice almost everyday depends on the song I want to learn. I always find time to play the guitar even if it is just 15 mins. So far I have already been able to play a lot of songs. Now I'm practicing on learning strumming technique by my own by listening to the song. I want to try making my own strumming pattern so that I will not depend so much on tutorials because not all songs have a tutorial on youtube. This video helps a lot. Thank you. :)

Thanks.. I appreciate the way you use your voice to help orient the strum pattern. So many internet teachers either can't or don't sing along.

Recently I learnt my first serious Strumming pattern (WAW! 😃), but, you're right, I fear to go out from that pattern while I'm playing a Song, even though I feel like making some small chance according to my feeling, to my mood. It must require much expertise to combine the two things, mustn't it? Thank you so much! I'll follow you. Bye! ☺️

Thank you for watching!

Thank you. Its really helping. Some channels are so technical and male orientated. But I'm really reaping rewards from this. I like your style, not annoying or waffling or being too jokey... Thank you.

It's such a pleasure watching your videos and applying them to my practice regiment. I know the chords you use in this vid, I learnt from your videos. I especially appreciate the production time in every video the sanctioning in the video so we cam easy jump back and watch a part again mid vid. You help my playing so much, your the best thanks so much Lauren 🙏👍

[@byfaithministries9327]

Thank you so much for all these great tips! I'm in the process of learning the guitar and I seem to be struggling with the strumming. I've watch multiple video's on here but you have really helped me with these to break these down and simplify them. I'm definitely going to check out your channel!

[@LaurenBateman]

Thanks Paula 😃

Hell, everyday life's a struggle! So is strumming for a lot of us. Lauren's a natural teacher. Stick with her and you'll get better, asap. Some things I know. Have a neat Christmas.

Hey Faith. I'm an old guitar "picker". Albeit, a bad one. Lauren has helped me so much that I've just added a youtube channel that I'll be singing and playing on soon. Listen to this lady. She's so good it almost hurts! LOL If you can hear it and feel it, and you want to play it badly enough, eventually you will. Practice, practice and then practice some more.

I was sitting here watching your strumming and recognized two songs, Who'll Stop the Rain and Proud Mary. I was singing the lyrics so I went to look it up and saw on your website that you have it and on KZbin. I am proud of myself that I had good enough song memory recall to recognize the pattern for Who'll Stop The Rain, it is pattern 2....lol. Seriously, I recognized it before I looked it up, so that is a good testament that you play it so well that even in a tutorial not about the song, just the strumming, I knew it immediately. I think you are a good teacher because you can do that.

[@LaurenBateman]

Aww thank you so much. Glad you found the lessons!

[@zachfree6126]

Thank you, Lauren. That was an excellent lesson. You have a beautiful voice. God bless you ❤

[@LaurenBateman]
