(3) Peer groups of the learner

(4) Family size from which the learner comes.

Answer 1

Answer:

2. educational status of the parents of the learner

Answer 2

The answer is '1) prior experience of the learner.'

• If the learner has previously learned the subject, that is, being taught, it will be easier for the learner to understand the content better.

• The educational status of the parents does not affect the learning effectiveness of the child. The parents might be highly educated, but it depends on the aptitude of the child to learn and understand the texts.

• The peer groups of the listener might help him to understand a few texts in the classroom, but it does not improve the effectiveness of the learning.

• The family size does not have any effect on classroom teaching and learning.
