Answer

I literally point and ask questions. :)

For some reason, I remember many of my Turkish students used "your" as a universal possessive (even when they meant "my"), so my typical reaction was to point at myself and look at them questioningly. They laughed and got the message quickly.

Even when students confuse "his/her" (this happens even when the student speaks a highly-gendered language), I ask for clarification. "His? It belongs to Mr Smith? That man?"  Usually it was just a slip of the tongue and they knew the proper answer, but it was a gentle reminder to get it right.

Possessive pronouns are pronouns that demonstrate ownership, i.e. I saw HER book on YOUR table; Is HIS car really that fast?
