You did a great job of asking for his previous knowledge on the topic to help adapt the session to his needs. In general, try to keep the student leading and trying to solve the problem so that they are engaged and can practice their learning. Also, try to make more of an effort to pause and ask if a student understands the material. Rather than vaguely saying, "do you understand, you can ask specific questions such as "did you understand how I did ___" or "did you understand why did ___" to pinpoint where a potential question could arise. Other than that, you did really well during the session.
