hey I'm having trouble learning the major scale and the modes. Like when I was learning the pentatonic scale it was fun because I could do cool blues licks and stuff along with learning it but with the major scale its just boring. do you have any advice?

Should we learn and practice all the different modes or should we get a complete understanding of the major and minor scales and then learn how the modes differ from the major and minor scales.

There are only 7 modes mate and major and minor are one of them. You should tend to learn all of them equally well IMO, but as Pedja said more focus on major and minor is cool as well because they are the in most common uses.
