Subject
If the subject of the question sentence is the question word (e.g. what, who, where), you don’t need an auxiliary verb. If the subject of the question is something else (e.g. you), you need an auxiliary verb (e.g. do/does)
Go through this very slowly. Get them to guess the subject of the question sentences first. Then explain that when the subject is the Quesion Word (who/what/where) we don’t need a aux verb. If it is something else we do.
