I need an informal word to describe a class at school that has certain characteristics : it´s fun, active, full of energy, dynamic, where everyone participates. It´s a class "con onda" Obviously this is because of the teacher!

I've heard 'it's a top class' in the U.K.
e.g.
- How is your English class?
- oh, it's a top class!

Doesn't cover all the characteristics but it is similar teen-speak I guess!

a class that really rocks!
This is a common contemporary English expression (especially in the USA, if that is what you need) for something popular.
