Is it acceptable for a trainer to promote their services and mention English is their primary or exclusive language?
English is Primary

Interesting question... my answer is, probably (?) Depends on the scenario, and who is your market
In an english-speaking class within an english-speaking country, a local trainer might not need to say that they can only speak in English however, a migrant such as myself, may need to state (with proof) that I am fluent in English so i can land the job.
On the other hand, in a diverse class, it could be a competitive advantage to be multilingual as compared to those who only speak english exclusively, as you may be able to communicate better with the diverse students using different language/s. Having said, if the client expects a multilingual trainer, yet you can only speak english exclusively, then you may need to explicitly state that so that both you and the client are aligned with the constraint.
I may not promote it in socmed or in my bio, but it could be in my letter to the client or state it during the interview where applicable.
I hope this helps!
