It is my experience that there is at least one aspect of Ada, which it 
is hard (for me) to explain to people in a way that is easy to 
understand: tagged types

Except for that, I am actually amazed how easy it is for people with a 
bit of programming experience behind them to get up to speed with 
programming in Ada.
