An instructor has been assigned a two-day, entry-level computer class for 10 employees of a large

corporation. During class introductions in the opening minutes of the course, the instructor notices
that none of the learners are native speakers of English, the only language the instructor speaks.
The learners are clearly worried and apprehensive because of the language barrier and appear
unwilling to participate in the course. Which of the following actions by the instructor is MOST
likely to ensure that these learners learn as much as possible in this situation?

A.
Speak loudly so the learners will be able to understand what is said.

B.
Omit more difficult material because the learners probably will find the material too difficult.

C.
Omit introductory and basic material to allow more time to explain more difficult material.

D.
