A comment on The hardest notes to find on the guitar fretboard. Parent comment
If you play the open E string, the octave for this is on the D string 2nd fret.
The easiest way I found was to think of the notes on each of the strings are a repeated pattern starting in different positions.
Start with the whole notes (no sharps or flats)
EFGABCD ABCDEFG
Once you've got them down you can learn the sharps/flats
