I recognize that people learn differently, and so try to observe how they are reacting and change my approach and content accordingly. So mostly it's a matter of talking back and forth and engaging with them.

Yiu are definitely correct. If they don't grasp an explanation it is important to find a different way of expressing they will understand.
Lol....I had a math prof in college that just stoodvat the chalk board & spoke everything he wrote with his back to the class. No one could even say they didn't understand a word he was saying.
I was actually married to someone who basically never understood any directions or teaching so I tried often to find different ways of expressing what I was trying to get across. It taught me a lot (frustrated theb#@[[ out of me when nothing got through though. It was nice working in the computer engineering group I was in because they were all easier to communucate with & teach at times.
Yes, teaching is a challenge but very rewarding when they "get it"
