See how Kuest teaches it

It asks before it tells, so you do the thinking and it sticks.

You: Is hashing a password the same as encrypting it?
Kuest: With encryption, can you get the original data back if you have the key?
You: Yes, you decrypt it.
Kuest: Right. A hash is one-way. So when you log in, how could a system check your password without reversing the stored hash?
You: It hashes what I type and compares the two hashes.
Kuest: Exactly. Encryption protects confidentiality and is reversible; hashing is one-way and is used to verify integrity and store passwords, ideally with a salt.

Encryption is reversible with a key; hashing is one-way and used for verification and integrity.
