[Workplace] Optimal number of students in a classroom

Help me please.... I'm working with this organization that insists that they
had an ESL teacher who told them that you can effectively teach 50 people at
a time. I've been teaching workplace ESL and regular ESL for 15 years,
doing teacher training AND have a masters in TESOL and have never heard
that. She really frustrated me, so I need some facts/research about the
optimal number of students in a low level ESL classroom. At the university,
we never had more than 25. In the workplace, I never allow more than 30 to
sign up.

Please help and THANKS!!!!
