It compounded upon itself, naturally, but the concepts were not altogether singular in nature and could be taught in a wide variety of orders.

"Some of what I teach may in fact be useful for your position, so it could only be beneficial." If he spun it that way, why would the answer be no? "But if it doesn't work out, I'd be happy to instruct you in some of the basics you might need." Mason had never taught another adult before, but he hardly shied away from a new teaching venture.
