I remember reading a study for early education that found that simply touching each student (high-five, hug, etc) every day significantly improved their performance. I imagine the need for a personal connection to the teacher diminishes gradually as we mature.

The problem I see is how do you scale personal connections and foster more social bonds?




You need more teachers. I think you should only have 10 or 12 kids per teacher max.
