the trainer i have believes in hand signals as well as the word, which is probably typical but heres my problem, before i started training at petsmart i taught my dog to turnaround with the word and a hand signal, but now when i try to teach him heal, he sometimes gets confused and instead of going around me and sitting he turnsaround infront of me and sits(cause of the hand signal, half of heel signal is similar to turnaround signal)

this was only the first day though i practiced with him for 30 minutes, do you think just with plain consistency he will understand that he just has to go behind me and sit?
