Aircraft was instructed to climb because they were not comfortable accepting a visual approach. After giving a vector to take them out towards final; the rate of climb was slower than expected and the aircraft entered a higher MVA at a lower altitude. Was thinking of a rule that applied to departures.
BTV TRACON Controller reported issuing a climb to an aircraft; the aircraft didn't climb as well as the Controller thought it would and ended up in a lower MVA.
