I have little experience with teaching but here are my 2 cents: What I observed is that at some point any new developer grows in ego and starts to question. So it's better to absent from teaching and let your pupil do something incorrectly on their own - if they fail they will learn a lot more than when being instructed to do something properly right from the start.
