No one has mentioned stall recovery.
Practice it! And stall avoidance. Beginners get overly worried about stalling near the ground and seeing just how slow things can get without falling out of the air is a confidence booster.

I would recommend that you give over a flight or two to slow flying practice. You'll probably find that you'll need to teach coordinating the turns with rudder, but once that's down pat, an approach is just the same thing with a bit less throttle.

Best Wishes,
