A participant who has been attending your class regularly starts to miss classes. You should:
  1. Get his phone number and call him to find out why he is not coming often.
  2. Take it as negative feedback and review your instructional technique.
  3. Welcome him energetically the next time he comes to class.
  4. Talk to him privately the next time he comes to class and inquire about his progress.
Explanation
Answer: D -When a participant who has been attending your class regularly starts to miss classes, you should talk to him privately the next time he comes to class and inquire about his progress. Decreasing attendance by an individual participant may have many factors, and you should not take it personally or as a comment on your technique. Work, family, health or other issues are common causes of poor attendance, and you should not press an individual for this information or contact them outside of class. However, spending a few minutes with them when they attend to ask how they are doing shows that you are interested in them and committed to their progress and fitness goals. You may also be able to offer suggestions and advice if burn out or injury are factors.
