As Linux is my main system I am using Kvm (virtual machine manager or something ) which is a front end to Qemu I think, that works really well. Virtual box needs to work out of the box, if you, the expert in their eyes, fails or hits barriers it will just look bad. Given how cheap a Raspberry Pi 3 is, perhaps one solution would be to buy one, the default OS is raspbian and it comes with Libreoffice etc, maybe let them have a go. the command line can come later, when there is a need for it.
