I've always said:
Imagine you're trying to teach a Martian to play cricket. You can't use jargon, you can't rely on pre-course knowledge. Keep the basic concepts simple and then build on them once the student has grasped them.
The basic 'teaching and learning' module will give you some ideas, but you must also develop a personal style - AND MAKE IT LOOK LIKE FUN!!
You'll never forget the first student you send solo......
