I simply told them : All the discussions and exercises of this particular session will be very boring, if you are not really interested to know more details about WP editing. Even if you don't attend, you can learn all these details later, gradually through experience or with a little help from an experienced editor. So, if your are not really interested plz don't attend this particular session to please me which will ultimately kill the excitement (for WP) within you.
