Small batch or large group? Look beyond the price.
Class size changes the amount of teacher attention a student can realistically receive. But small is not automatically better — the right format depends on the child's needs.
When a small batch makes sense
If your child needs repeated explanations, hesitates to ask questions, has specific learning gaps or benefits from teacher feedback, a smaller class can be worth the additional cost.
When a larger group may be enough
If the student is already confident, keeps up easily and mainly needs structured exposure and practice, a larger group may work perfectly well. Don't pay for individual attention if the child doesn't need it.
What to ask before you enroll
Ask the academy for the actual maximum class size, not just “small batch.” Ask how often each student gets to answer, whether cameras/mics are used, how homework is reviewed and how parents receive feedback.
