Narrative:

Departed hqz runway 17 in cessna 150 for traffic pattern work. Student pilot in cessna departed after; asked if we were staying in pattern as he had announced he had turned crosswind behind me. He also said I had extended my upwind. I said [I] would give way. Upon turning crosswind found he had was not on crosswind; was just turning crosswind behind me. I then turned downwind; announced was midfield downwind. Turned base; then final; announcing each. No position reports by student pilot; who had been below and behind me despite his misreporting his position on crosswind. On final at 400 AGL saw student in cessna was above me on final; overtaking me. Announced we were below and just ahead and that I was breaking left and going around to give student above and behind me right of way. Student in cessna landed; we landed after going around. Tried to discuss with student to make sure he was alright and extract mutual lessons learned. Not obvious that student learned anything from the conversation. My learning was to always keep traffic in sight; even if behind one; especially if they are misreporting position. Also to over communicate re position especially if other pilot has poor syntax and appears inexperienced.
