Tips: Quarter Stitches

I am teaching my best friend Marie how to stitch. I'm having trouble getting her to understand quarter stitches. Does anyone have any tips or stuff that might help? Thanks:)

[*]This diagram represents a square. To stitch a quarter stitch, bring the threaded tapestry needle up at 1.
[*]To complete the stitch, bring the threaded tapestry needle down at 2, through the center of the square.Quarter stitches may be stitched from any corner of the Aida square.

For a 3/4 stitch:


[*]This diagram represents one square. To stitch a three-quarter stitch, first bring the needle up at 1 and down at 2, stitching a quarter stitch.
[*]Next, bring the needle up at 3 and down at 4, stitching a half stitch to complete the three-quarter stitch. Three-quarter stitches may be stitched in any direction.
[*]I find stitching part 2 in the darker shade when laying next to a different colour quarter stitch adds definition, other wise if this is not needed stitch as
