You know, the problem is you are smart and you are not aware of how people are approaching computer programming topics. IMHO, sorta like a startup pitch, if you can't explain the difference (to a beginner) between two languages in less than 4 sentences, you probably lost them.
There's really no need to explain the differences in languages to a beginner. When you're teaching someone to code, you're not teaching them a language. You're teaching them (or should be teaching them) concepts that they can take to any language they need. You teach them logic, flows, etc - how to think in terms of solving a problem through programming.
