anything = a choice
Although I know everything, I can only do one thing at a time, so I must choose. = I can do anything. If talking about the past then you must say: "I did everything."
As you can see, you must also say: "I taught him everything." If you are offering a lesson, then you can see: "I can teach you anything (you like)." See the choice here?

Every = Means all, always.
Any = Means an variable amount of something. it could mean 0 as much as it could mean 10000.
I don't have ANY money.
You can have ANY of these toys.

everything = all his knowledge
anything = doesn't state how much or what he taught his son
