The RollerFitness manual lists 20 roles and responsibilities of a certified instructor. Choose 5 that you consider most critical to participant safety and session quality. For each one, describe what it looks like in practice during a class — not just what it means in theory.
The full list of 20 roles is laid out in Module 4. Focus on ones that have direct impact on participant safety, inclusion or the quality of your coaching rather than the administrative ones.

A participant arrives visibly anxious before their first-ever roller skating session. They are trembling slightly, have a tense body and tell you they are scared of falling. Using the guidance in your manual, describe four specific strategies you would apply before and during the class to support this participant.
The "Give Appropriate Support to an Anxious Participant" section lists specific techniques. Your answer should go beyond reassurance — include practical physical, environmental and instructional strategies.

Name the four categories of abuse defined in the RollerFitness Safeguarding Policy and give a clear description of each. Then list four common signs that a vulnerable adult in your class may be experiencing abuse or neglect — and explain why these signs can be difficult to identify.
The safeguarding section defines each category precisely and then lists common observable signs. The manual notes that signs are "not always obvious" — include this point in your answer.

Explain the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Describe two specific and practical techniques you would use in a RollerFitness class to motivate each type of participant. Then explain how the RollerFitness Challenge Card is designed to address one of these motivation types.
The Challenge Card section in Module 4 explains which type of motivation it targets and why. Use that explanation to anchor your final point.

As a RollerFitness instructor you carry a legal duty of confidentiality to your participants. Describe the three specific circumstances in which this confidentiality must be broken. For each one, explain why breaking it is both legally required and ethically necessary — and what action you would take.
These three circumstances are listed explicitly in the Communication & Confidentiality section. Your answer should go beyond naming them — explain the action you take and why the duty to protect overrides the duty of confidence.
