Cheers

It will be partly specific to the aircraft so just use common sense and do what you always do when introducing someone to a new aircraft.
Start with the POH. Go through the usual stuff about speeds, powers, fuel management, performance and M&B. Teach whatever systems are new to the stude. Specifically, this should include: how to operate the systems (and why to do it in a certain why), potential failure mechanisms and how to deal with them, speed limits, and any type-specific gotchas. You also need to teach any new checks such as RAGA/RGB (or something similar) checks on final, after take-off checks (eg BUFPAINLIP), pausing for 3 greens before continuing pre-landing checks.
In the aircraft you need to reinforce strict drills. Examples include: checking gear selector down before master on, checking 3 greens straight after master on, checking speeds before selecting a system (LOI cycle), how to lean, moving the throttle and prop in correct sequence, etc, etc.

Is the student aware that you have no idea what you are doing?
