Learners often say *"reluctant of do something"* or *"reluctant for do something"*. The usual pattern is **"reluctant to do something"** (e.g., "She is reluctant to help"). We can also say **"reluctant about [something]"** (e.g., "He is reluctant about the move"), but not *"reluctant of"* in standard English.
