The reason for this is, by nature, abstract. It deals with the intangible dimension of time. The rudiments of it which must be grasped before the system of notation can really be worked with, are also abstract, hard to "get a handle on" for many beginners. And then the whole situation is made worse by the fact that the usual method book often distorts basic concepts, or leave much too much unsaid (perhaps leaving it to the teacher to clarify, which often doesn't happen). Because fundamental concepts are not adequately and clearly defined, more advanced concepts cannot be grasped. As you will see, Lesson 1 begins with a clarification of the most basic concepts.
