At the beginner level you should work on learning the notes in the lower register of the fretboard. Start with the open strings & the first 5 frets. I cover that in depth in my Fundamentals course. Start here.

After learning the natural notes, then learn the accidentals in between.

Once you are beyond that level & ready to learn the rest of the fretboard you can use the repeating octave method. I cover that in this lesson.
