A learner performs a manoeuvre correctly only when the instructor talks them through every step. What does this indicate, and what should the instructor do next?

1. The learner has mastered the skill; move to a new topic
2. The skill is prompt-dependent; gradually withdraw verbal support until the learner performs it unaided
3. The learner is not trying; repeat the same full instruction unchanged
4. The manoeuvre is too hard; abandon it permanently
