yes

Can you tell me a bit about the child? Are they an experienced skier? New skier? Are they already familiar with skis?

I just said I want to teach them. That means they don't know how. So why do you ask me if they are experienced? They know what skis are.

Sorry, I wanted to know the details of their experience, to know if it’s different from the learning experiences they’re used to having.  So if they’re familiar with skis and you just want to teach them a new skill, the simplest approach would be to focus on their visual-motor coordination: telling them how to put their feet in the right place on the skis.  A less-direct approach would be to build on their existing skills:

Some of that makes no sense. How do I teach them to balance and how to stop?
