small class
Intimate learning group
A small class is a group with relatively few students, typically in an educational setting.
The term implies a ratio that allows for more individual attention: Small class sizes are a selling point for private schools.
What counts as small varies by context—twenty students might be small for a university lecture but large for a seminar.
