Here is an example of a lesson I teach online for one of my students.  For online lessons, please contact me at [email protected].

In this video I go over a lesson for one of my students on the popular song "Say" by John Mayer.  This was our second lesson of the session where I decided to go over a neat way to create a strum for a song, which is a very popular topic for most beginners.

The part around 17:08 where I forget what I was going to mention was this: You don't have to have a very wide strum when you're accenting the hard downstrokes.  This can lead to more tension in the strumming hand which will hinder your ability to strum correctly.
