I think it’s obvious that students have a higher potential of learning with a teacher that actually has time to have a conversation with them now and then.
Personally, the fact that stand and deliver lectures is the norm for college classes has never ceased to amaze me. Why even have a professor rather than just read a book at that point? University has become a twisted simulacrum of it’s original form and it saddens me to watch it decay even more with time.

Not to mention that the “more and better teachers” mantra should be applied all the way down to primary education.
Unfortunately our societies prioritise these things differently.
