Better Seating To Maximize Learning

Help me give my students a place to sit close by so that I can utilize time in the classroom waisted by walking across the room to help those needing the help.

My Project

I want to proved a place where my kids can sit around me for help on assignments so that I don't waist time walking across the room. Once they grasp the concept, they can return to their regular seats so that another student can fill that spot and get better 1 on 1 help. I generally have around 20-25 in each class period. If I can get those that struggle with their work to sit at my desk they tend to do better but my regular teacher desk can only accommodate 2 to 3 at a time. If I can get a horseshoe desk that can fit 8-10 I can help more with in the hour, it also saves time when I have to walk from 1 student desk to another If they sit on opposite sides of the room. I could also go over the same concept at a slower pace and talk to multiple simultaneously in this closer setting. Once they think they understand, they can return to their regular seats so that others can fill in.
