How do you know when you're at the stage that you should start having classes purely in the target language?

I'm teaching a student from A0 level, only in English. If the student wishes to translate, then that can be done in his/her own time.

I've also started classes in a new language at A1 level, and I try to use only the target language in class. I hate resorting to this crutch called English. Again, any translation or English-language explanations can be done on my own time. Classes mean your time and your money, so better make the best use of them!
