It's a global vs sequential learner thing. Linear Algebra is usually taught as a giant pile of tricks, techniques, and terminology. This is tractable for sequential learners like myself - I really enjoy picking up new tools in a narrow context just for it's own sake. Highly global learners basically can't learn anything this way.

So, in short, my advice is "add more context."
