In practice in class, which actions help assist clients?

• A. Watch clients repeat and answer questions
• B. Give praise and constructive criticism
• C. Both A and B
• D. Ignore mistakes

Answer: (C)

Active practice in class thrives when you observe clients as they repeat tasks and answer questions, then layer in feedback. Watching shows you what they understand, where timing or cues are off, and when they’re ready to move forward. Praise reinforces correct technique and builds confidence, and it should be specific to what was done well. Constructive criticism provides clear, actionable steps to improve, delivered in a supportive way so learners can adjust their handling, timing, or cueing. Together, observation plus positive reinforcement and targeted guidance create a steady path to improvement; ignoring mistakes stalls progress.
