As an instructor, I enjoy teaching a small class much more than teaching a large one. Presumably, teachers who are enjoying their work will do better than teachers who aren't. In my personal experience, the quality of the education I provide varies wildly from class to class and semester to semester. Within a classroom, there are always a few students who "get me" and vice versa, and always a few that I just don't jive with.
