today my teacher told me that the diference between a major pentatonic and a minor pentatonic was where you start. he showed me this:

||----------------------------1-4----|
||------------------------1-4--------|
||-------------------1-3-------------|
||--------------1-3------------------|
||---------1-3-----------------------|
||----1-4----------------------------|

||---------------------------1-4-----|
||----------------------1-4----------|
||------------------1-3--------------|
||-------------1-3-------------------|
||--------1-3------------------------|
||------4----------------------------|

but im not 100% sure what he meant or the deeper meaning of this. he did tell me we would get to it in time but i hate waiting when i got a fire under me.
could one of you geniuses please help.
