Do you remember the list of other skills?
I think it's kind of like teaching someone how to ride a bike. No amount of theory and coaching will help until the connections form in their brain.
Smarter everyday has an interesting video[1] on this phenomenon where he showed that it takes considerable effort to learn to ride a "backward" bike and once you do, you will forget how to ride a normal one and need to relearn it.
