    Are you brand new to guitar and not sure where to start? 🤔 Well then, you've clicked on the perfect video! 🎉
    My name is Ellen and I create step-by-step guitar tutorials here on my channel, #for3v3rfaithful 🦋 Welcome to the fourth episode of my brand new beginner series, where I'll teach you one of the most popularly used strumming patterns on guitar! 😱 (And stay tuned to the end of the video to play through even more songs with me! ⭐)
    Make sure if you haven't seen the first three episodes yet, to start from the beginning so you don't miss a thing! 😉
    1️⃣ EPISODE 1: • Guitar Lessons for Beg...
    2️⃣ EPISODE 2: • Guitar Lessons for Beg...
    3️⃣ EPISODE 3: • Guitar Lessons for Beg...
    Through the years, many people have told me on their first day of guitar lessons, "I just want to play a song" - so that's just what we'll focus on! 🎸This series is intended to teach you the basics of guitar by PLAYING ACTUAL SONGS in each video! 🎶 Of course, you'll still learn the foundational stuff along the way, but it'll be sprinkled in so you can still have fun and play your guitar while learning. 🤗
    In this episode, we're shifting focus from our left hand to our right so we can learn more about strumming! 🙌 Stick with me to the end of the video to learn one of the MOST POPULAR strumming patterns and then use it to play through even more songs! 💪🏼
    Throughout this series, we'll dive deeper into topics like tuning your guitar, practicing chord transitions, and figuring out strumming patterns, but for this lesson, I want you to get comfortable with up strums and learning this first, basic (but extremely applicable!) strumming pattern! 💕
    As always, thanks so much for watching, and good luck!! ✌

I love how you have the song medleys at the end. The set up of the music and having you sing while we play has been so helpful! Please make more of these beginner videos!!! And maybe some "campfire" songs videos too? I am so grateful for you. You are a wonderful teacher and generous to have your lessons so accessible!

      So glad to hear these have been helpful to you! 🙌 Strumming patterns can be a difficult concept to get down. Many people understand the counting but have trouble translating that to the actual up and down strums. 🙈 But just take it slowly and keep practicing consistently and soon it'll click for you and become easy! 🎸🎶 Best of luck, and thanks so much for watching and learning with me! 🤗💕

In one day, literally, I am able to play soooo much better. I can play chords I couldn't play before, and I can strum and change chords. Your techniques are what changed things for me. Thank you! Much success to you and your channel.

    Yes! I needed this. For me who is completely new to guitar, it is the strumming patterns that always make it difficult. If I practice, I could learn the chords and get used to chord shifts, but not the strumming patterns. I always get stuck at the detailed strumming patterns when I'm trying to learn the whole song. It makes me overwhelmed... This really is useful and I am very looking forward to episode 5 too! Thank you so much!!

    I bought my guitar like 6 months ago and went straight to learning a couple of Rock/Metal songs (my fav genre) using power chords, and im like "this is easy, i can play a whole Metallica song by using 2 finger power chords"... until i had to start using actual chords, then im like "Oh no, why didnt i start with the basics, and learned actual chords".
    A couple days ago i found your channel and here i am, completed episode 4 and it feels so good to be able to actually play real chords and being able to transition between them. And also my strumming has improved too! Im learning on electric guitar as i dont have an acoustic (yet).
    I'm now going to tackle the much feared C chord and after some bar chords. Thanks for your videos you really do an excellent job, from the way you teach to the structure of the videos, great work!
    And even if im a Metalhead, im excited to play along all these pop/ballad songs that you have on your channel! Cant wait for video number 5. Thank you!

    It's taken me almost 6 months now to get to this video, but this is hands down the BEST guitar tutorial I've ever had! I don't care what people say, what entitled guitarist have to chime in with. This breaks down guitar in a way I can understand.
    I am now playing G, C, D, E, A no problem, I can transition them with my eyes closed, I'm very impressed with these lessons. I kind of take each lesson in my own stride. I stuck to ur first lesson for almost a month, until I could play all those chords no problem!
    I honestly don't think ur going to find a better way to learn from scratch on UA-cam!
    I've come across a lot of "professionals" and my friends have pointed me in directions that all go WAY over my head. I think some people assume I should know how to read and hear music before I pick up a guitar, but with these tutorials; I had no clue how to do either- and now, I can tell when my guitar is out of tune, when I'm muting a string or not applying the right pressure, my fingers don't hurt anymore, my hand doesn't cramp (I thought I couldn't play guitar because maybe I had some kind of cramp problem. Nope, just not use to it!).
    I truly do mean this from the bottom of my heart! THANK YOU FOR THESE VIDEOS! You took a father who was hesitant to learn guitar because I was too old for it now, too, helping me become someone who enjoys guitar and everything that comes with it and now an eager learner trying to learn things I told myself I'd never attempt cuz it was way above me!

    I’m back for more! My instructor moved me into strumming, after drinking from a fire hose, learning chords and chord progression etc. It is always a delight to take a break, and pick up on one of your videos. Having an instructor to guide me weekly, helps to keep me focused and regimented. Like anything else, too much repetition can make you chase squirrels after a while. Your videos really help, and this one was great as I could pause & rewind, get it almost right until I finally felt comfortable with the task. I get frustrated easily, so this is a bonus! Thank you once again for sharing your wonderful gift!

    I'm an absolute beginner and I'm so happy to have found your videos just a week ago. I've been trying to learn guitar for years. But each time after few days I would give up because the strumming really frustrated me. But with your easy to follow step-by-step lessons finally I feel like I can learn guitar. Within a week of following your lessons I can feel the up strumming is improving and beginning to feel easier everyday. Thanks a lot!!!

    It’s took me months to get to lesson 4 😅😂 I bought a metronome.. I skip lesson 3 until the practice which I enjoy the most as it feels like I can play.. I haven’t learnt how to read the patterns yet, as I need them facing the other way for some reason? But I return to lesson 2 a lot.. I have just learnt to relax my arm strumming down 😇 I didn’t realise how tense I was until your guitar lesson’s.. which led me to start meditating more & practice a relaxed breathing pattern.. This all led me to ‘let go’ and relax! Which in turn changed my life.. it hugely impacted in everything I do, even simple tasks of everyday things like washing up, I realised I was always rushing & stressing about everything! I learnt to count everything out.. 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 😂 I do this walking up the stair’s.. cleaning.. even when people are talking to me in my mind I am counting 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 🤣 it helps me stay mindful & calm 🙏 You are helping me in so many way’s I had to share with you & Thank you 💫 My strumming down has immensely improved, my strumming up is hit n miss 🤪 I need to use my plectrum! But I play at all the early hours in the morning so I am quiet 🤫 It’s hard to strum up with a sausage thumb 👍 haha! I’m going to try playing outside by the river with a plectrum 🌱 Thank you again for the life changer! You’re energy is so beautiful n balanced, I can’t wait to advance to the next video but until I master the up strum & learn to read the chords I’ll stay between lesson 3/4 and flip back to 2! 😇 1 and 2 and 3 and 4.. 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 - 😉

      Hey, slow and steady wins the race (as they say) and also it means you're really giving yourself time to learn it correctly so your practice sessions are super productive! 🙌 People have a tendency to rush through the early lessons and sometimes that puts them at a disadvantage later on. 🙈 If you're enjoying the counting and metronome process, you should try out my brand new strumming challenge I just released this morning! 🎸 ua-cam.com/video/uWCi62IPi1E/v-deo.html Thanks for watching and learning with me! 🥰
