Whenever I am browsing on UA-cam to learn something new on guitar, I always, always, always end up learning from you. Nobody on UA-cam teaches with such clarity and simplicity, I never get stuck when learning from you and I plan to start your full course soon! Thank you!
I'm 65 yrs old and I've been trying to learn how to play the guitar. You have now made it so easy for me to learn. You simplify my learning. Thank you so much and God's blessings on you.
I have been wanting to learn guitar for years. The way you teach is amazing. I have never been patient with myself. Never able to focus on learning the guitar . The way you simplify things and your step by step guide and tutorial lessons are so easy to follow. Im up to lesson 7 of your crash course but going to take your advise and just practice the first 6 lessons over the next couple of days before attempting lesson 7 onwards. So glad I have stumbled across you on UA-cam and have subscribed to your beginner lessons Thank You😃
I must say this is one of the BEST videos out there!!! I’ve been playing for about a year now, and I keep going back to this video. You did a FANTASTIC job here! You should make more of these, that would be awesome! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for your patient and caring way of teaching. It means the world to me. I'm 41 years old, but I have multiple disabilities that no longer allow me to work. I picked up a guitar last June, and it, along with your lessons, have quite literally saved my life. I have a renewed hope and joy for life. You've made more of a difference than you'll ever know. God Bless and Merry Christmas. ❤️
Hi Lauren, I am 62 years old and have really enjoyed your style of teaching. Thanks so much for the easy C it has really helped me so much. Regards Conway. Durban, South Africa.
Just started Lauren's 7 Level System a few weeks ago, she is a phenomenal instructor. She gets you through the rough spots with great lessons and techniques, and she is so easy to watch and follow along with. Great balance of hard work and playing enjoyment. Better than in person teaching, take in and use as as much or as little as you want (set any pace). She's got all the bases covered. I've never been more comfortable and capable on the guitar. Many thanks Lauren.
Lauren I have to tell you that you are a very good teacher. There are many teachers on youtube but for some reason you have the ability to break things down in a way that really helps those of us that struggle to learn. Thanks.
Thank you, Coach! You are the best. Very grateful. I thought I wasted $1500 on a guitar which i will never learn. You made it easy. My bucket list item - learn to play by 50. Thank you for putting me on the path.
Iam 76 years old starting playing guitar and its very hard to do fingers not cooperating.It look very easy the way you are doing it .Love your lessons.Thank you very much .
I love your teaching style. You make it feel like us mediocre players feel like... we can do this. Thank you for your wonderful blessings you give us who just want to play and sound good. Thank you.
Hi Lauren, i have been learning the Guitar from watching your lessons. Lauren you make learning the guitar so easy. I am 67 and just started learning last Xmas. I live on the Sunshine Coast in QLD Australia. Thanks for the great Guitar lessons Lauren love your sessions, Cheers Mick.👌🎸
Thank you Lauren you gave me the perfect birthday pressie, it's wonderful to hear you sing. I celebrate 64 years on the 16 December. All the songs are in my era. Wonderful. Blessings from Kruger Park in South Africa. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Thank you for freely sharing your innate gifts and talents. You’re a great teacher and master of your craft and I no longer feel stick due to sticking with you since day one. Much appreciated for all you do!
One of the best teachers on UA-cam, and also one of the few creators that takes time to read every comment from yr viewers and appreciate them.... Thank you 🎸🙌
Lauren this is a fantastic video. I look forward to the time when I can play a few of these. I have improved on moving between the Em and D6/9 and rhythm…I am so glad I found you. The way your course of study takes us step by step is so encouraging to me. It’s amazing how many songs can be played with so few chords. Thanks again.
Lauren, my guitar teacher has been teaching me music theory - a LOT of it. I finally applied it. I just broke down "Treacherous" by Taylor Swift. I heard it and thought it was the most complex song imaginable. Well, key of D. A classic D chord progression. Simple melody. Often repeating the same notes over and over again. I could not believe it. Not even a key change. HOW does she do it! She can take three notes or so and makes it a masterpiece. It's amazing how many songs use simple chords and simple chord progressions and make it sound like this complex symphony. Thank you for your work and your teaching style!
Bravo! I'm so impressed by your YT videos and notice you have responded to every message you received (as far as I could scroll anyway). That is a lot of work, which is what impresses me so much I signed up for your 7 Level Guitar System! I'm 58 and play bass for my church. I thought perhaps I could graduate to more than 4 strings. Thanks for all you do for us ol' folk (and the songs you chose speak to me).
David, hi! Congratulations 🎉 Yes, I try to respond to every single comment. I sometimes get back logged but I want to make an attempt to at least say hello or thank you.
Hey Lauren you are so amazing am 60 some time on my pick hand my fingers get a little numb. Dear I have so many questions. Am not rich or have a lot of money. But is it the price of your guitar one problem. Thank you so very much. One word for you is awesome
Hi Lauren, how do i join your program and what does it cost. It is over 30 years since i played guitar. I just purchased a new Yamaha A1M Modified Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar. It seems to be a good instrument and am looking forward to regaining some proficiency with it. Seems harder than when i first started at Round 10 yo. I am on my own and have a disability , so getting back into guitar seemed like a good pastime to get back into. I like singing, not sure how good i am Ha Ha. So glad i found you on line. Max Carter
Hi Max, so glad you found me too! Happy to hear you have a guitar you're enjoying. You can learn more about the beginner course here: www.laurenbatemanguitar.com/course You will get access to the lessons for as long as you need as well as 3 months access to my community to ask me questions.
Merry xmas & happy 2022 Lauren..... just to say thankyou for ur videos, and blessed i found you, im on my own xmas so i thought id spend the day playing / learning more guitar with you, can't think of a more epic thing to do..big love xxx
Hello Lauren, I've looking everywhere to find a good teacher on line and I think you're the person I was looking for. I've got a question regarding how do you know which note goes after the other to play a song like you did on this video. Thank you so much, God bless you.
Hi Lauren. Great video as always ..maybe get to see you in the elvis t shirt before Xmas. N u will deffo have me rocking around the Xmas tree ..keep up the great lessons ...thank you
Hey lauren, how are you doing since your Scottish trip ?pity you didn't decide to come over to Ireland and Galway, which is right on the west coast and we claim to be the home of culture and great music 🎵
I love your videos the only thing I might ask is if you could put your music in a format where I can see the next cord coming so I know where to go with my playing
I am BIG fan of yours Lauren. Question: on the easy version of a D chord you show an open string on the high E string. There is no E in a D major chord, so why is this ok to play? thank you.
@@LaurenBateman thank you Lauren, I was hoping that was the answer. Now I know I can replace that, and it will still sound good. You rock, and I will be joining your lessons soon. I am thinking of doing it via pay pal, this way I can pay monthly. Thanks again for all that you do to help everyone with learning guitar.
Hello Lauren! Thank you so much for your work. I started on New Years Eve - Iḿ a 59er from Germany. And after four days of practice I#m playing my second song. It's so much fun. You are such an inspiration!!!
Hiii I love the tutorial but I have a big problems I can change chords but my guitar sounds different can u help me I tried to tune it in app the app said my tune is all fine
Thanks for the easy version of the c chord I only started playing in April and still keep by passing songs with the c and f chord in cause I have struggled getting to them lol
Hi Lauren. I really like your style of breaking songs into simple chunks and making things easy to follow. I feel i have picked up really useful tips although i am still very much a beginner. I can see quite a few songs on your "lists" that i can see will be fun to tackle. it also struck me on browsing UA-cam I have seen a few lessons by other tutors and some of the songs they have covered, I think you would be able to put over a bit more effectively ( Or add a little more spice to) if it is of interest, a few of these songs include. "Candy" by Paolo Nutini. "Maybe Tomorrow" by Stereophonics, "Chicken Fried" by Zak Brown Band and "All These things That I've Done" by The Killers. Keep up the good work, I love it. Kenny
Thank you, Kenny for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
Wow loved the video. I have always played guitar and keyboard using about six cords. For most of the sixties songs I like to sing! I like your simple strumming and clear instruction, learning is easy for so many people watching you including my self. and Oh I love your singing voice, fabulist video best wishes Ken xxx
Really love the simplicity. However I'm awaiting lessons on playing praise and worship songs, which I'd find more relevant. Could you provide lessons for this?

Hello Lauren, I've looking everywhere to find a good teacher on line and I think you're the person I was looking for.
I've got a question regarding how do you know which note goes after the other to play a song like you did on this video.
Thank you so much, God bless you.
This is understanding a bit of music theory, but in the beginning you can looks up chord charts or buy sheet music for the song you want to learn.
Nice song's,melody,waw,excellent

Love the way to teach 😊❤

Is every chord progression you showed us for each song the same along the whole song?
Sometimes but not always.
Awesome songs! And most that Was with years of searching but great guitar songs to learn…. great job.
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Lauren! Any tricks for stretching my fingers! Having trouble with power chords. 🤦🏻
Yeah, ouch. Spider exercises help with this.
