They start by memorizing songs. Then they learn some scales. Maybe some chords. And 10 years in, they still can't explain why a progression works or hear the difference between a Major 7 and Minor 7 chord.
I know because I was a college professor for years, and almost every student who walked in had the same problem…lots of playing, very little understanding.
The ones who broke through weren't more talented. They just learned both sides: the theory AND the instrument at the same time. Once your ear, your brain, and your hands are all working together, everything clicks.
That's why I put these four courses together. The Beato Book and Ear Training give you the knowledge and the ear. The Scale Matrix and Arpeggio Masterclass give you the fretboard.
