A forehand shot is a shot that is executed where the palm of your hand is facing your opponent, to the right side of the elbow for a right handed player and vice versa for a left handed player.

How do you demonstrate table tennis?

If I understand your question, the best way is to show what is referred as 'stroke technique'. For example: forehand to forehand topspin, backhand to backhand topspin, forehand to forehand push/underspin, backhand to backhand push, and so on. This way, the ball is keep in play for a longer period of time so as to demonstrate the technique that is needed to master it.
