I'm currently teaching an asynchronous online course in pre-calculus for the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, and from class introductions, I saw that I have one student whose first language is not English. So far, the student is doing really well on the homework, quizzes/exams, and discussion questions (DQs), but I'm concerned that due to the language barrier, this student may not be clear on the substantive post requirements for participation, as the student only received partial credit for participation in the first week of class.

How should I handle this particular situation? I was wondering if I should use Google Translate to convey to the student the participation requirements for this class or if I should send an early alert to a student services counselor, who might be able to guide and assist the student, perhaps by having a translator/interpreter to get in touch with the student. I think the second option might be a bit of a stretch, but I don't know for sure. I would highly appreciate some feedback on my question, thank you.
