Hi Orr,

You start with your bat at your left shoulder and then swing across the ball and finish with the bat at shoulder height and to your right.  You don't need to move your elbow too much for this..  This will give you a good swing.  Then learn to contact the ball finely to get good spin  on the ball.

There is also a lot more information on serving if you go to the Serving Secrets part of our site.
