The Small Class Size & its Benefits

Dr. Hind Louali founded the Ecole Jean-Jacques Rousseau in Texas in September 2005 with a vision to create a unique learning environment for children during their formative years. Dr. Hind Louali's school operates a small class-size system.

The small class size has fewer than 20 members. This form of class size is better for children, especially those in their formative years. A small-cluster academic environment is more engaging for the students and less tasking for the teachers.

Small class size allows for the inclusion of every child in classroom activities. In a class, different students have various degrees of assimilation. In a small class, the teacher's attention is less divided and can be focused more on the individual student.

Small class size also improves a child's participation in activities, confidence, and thinking skills. The child also learns to be more vocal, interactive, and assertive. It is easier for the students to make friends amongst themselves in a smaller class since they work together and interact during class activities.
