    Ping-

    While you’re working on those chords- (I realize it’s been a couple of weeks now since your original post)- here’s something you might try.

    So this is a TOTALLY “if-you-want-to” thing—- while you’re in the chord-playing mood- maybe after your lesson, search-up one of the Tabbed-song websites- (like e-chords or Ultimate Guitar), and find yourself an “easier” song- (maybe like something from Creedence Clearwater Revival- maybe “Stuck in Lodi Again”).

    Play along in it and SEE, FEEL, and HEAR how the chords that —–you—– are playing, and the sounds you are making, are becoming part of that song.

    Notice the difference in the sound as the song changes chords, and how YOUR chord change somehow goes in perfectly. And after a short while, the transitions- (very important)- will be smooth as silk.

    All the while- remember that it does NOT matter how “good” you do. Just go with it and have some fun.

    My crazy two-cents.
