Hmmm … as a psychologist that certainly garnered my attention! I have to ask what you consider a “halfway decent” IQ?

Below average is sufficient.
Retarded usually is not.

The higher the IQ, the more complex the level of abstraction of your explanation can be and vice versa.
But a good teacher will be able to adapt and convey the essentials.
