Hi Huck,
I find it best to teach this with writing down a couple bars of eight note triplets and placing the RLRR LRLL over those triplets so the student can visually see how it will lay among the triplets. I think this helps with understanding how it's supposed to feel and how it goes over the bar line. You don't have to a great reader to do this. It's something you can do yourself. Try that and it should help.
Edit: I found it online. Go to this link and it's the top bar in this exercise. https://www.onjazzdrumming.com/jazz-...nversions.html
