I was taught in my grandfather's art school. There was a limit of ten per class, but usually about six. It was ideal. We could learn from each other, and have some fun on the side. It was very social. But we had individual teaching from the teacher as well, as he would come around to each of us in turn and give us individual attention. Private lessons have never worked for me as an art teacher. There is something missing. It is easier to tell a classroom about technique then an individual. It is less intimidating to the individual.
