Does this make sense?

For example, she would often subvert any form of tangential thinking I had used in explaining concepts, and instead tried to always sharpen my ability to explain them in irreducibly simple terms.


can it be improved? thanks!

The comment I would make about this sentence is that "subvert any form of tangential thinking" sounds like a bad or undesirable thing, yet "sharpen my ability to explain them in irreducibly simple terms" sounds like a good or desirable thing.
