Yes. In general as a teacher, I've found that those that love a subject are tempted to teach it by presenting conceptual overviews they arrived at after they actually understood it themselves. They have these "holy shit" moments where whole areas of seemingly disparate ideas converge, and they think that presenting that first will help others get to their level. But in fact, you have to figure out what will bring people to an understanding (and it differs depending on what type of thinkers they are), not what their understanding will bring them to. Or at least, you can't just do those overarching explanations.
