Two thoughts. 1. I hope his real age is brought up soon. To everyone in the class, not just Ember. I really hope the class doesnt see him as just a kid. Not for size, that would be one thing, but because they legitimately think he's a child's age. Mistaken identity plotlines can only go so far. Even in Negima, which I assume is where you got alot of inspiration from for this (forgive me if I'm incorrect), Negi's age was known at the very start.
2. -nevermind the point that was here, I reread the chapter and realized I misread the line I questioned-
On this chapter: The grammar and structuring had no errs that I could find.
The basis of this chapter is the chapter commonly used in stories in which the main character is new: the one in which people are introduced to him. Of course, this is a different one, because usually it's a new student rather than a new teacher and also he hasn't gotten beaten up by a tsundere, and I'm glad you don't like tsunderes as much as characters that aren't so obviously deranged. This scene/chapter actually feels like a clever way to hide an exposition dump: Generally, exposition dumps (When a bunch of information about the story or world is told in one small time frame) are obvious, in which it's usually just one person talking about what's going on, or perhaps two people or even just the inner monologue of the main character, but instead, we have this, in which it flows like an actually organic story, people talking and information being revealed in a way that doesn't feel like we're just being told.
Finally, characterization: It's good. Like, seriously, the characterization is good. It doesn't feel like it's out of place or OoC. Well, except for Marble trying to hug him: Marble is a shy pony. She should be closer in terms of actions to Fluttershy than to Pinkie. Marble would probably not actively try to run at Spike and hug him, especially since she's more rock than critter. Fluttershy trying to hug him would make a bit more sense than Marble, given past actions from the show.
"But...but he's just a kid!" A blue, and quite buxom, pegasus blurted out, a couple of others voicing their agreement. Spike quickly tried to focus on the gemstone poster behind her to avoid how her breasts were almost bouncing out of the sling bikini she had on.
So we got the Mane 6, Gilda, Gabby, Ember, Lyra, Bon Bon, Maud, Marble, and Juniper Montage. Good to see there's already these ladies for his harem. Juniper Montage is really unexpected to be honest. Still, I like the diversity of ponies, griffons, and dragons for Spike to have. This should be really good.
Excellent chapter!! Cant wait for the clop parts and more chapters. I was like Yes Yes!!!!!! when he met the class and when he said that he was a good cook. I am a good cook as well. Mr. WriterWriter You arfe doing great!! MAybe you could bring queen chrysalis into it?? SHes probably my favorite villain. Or maybe you can make a spike x chrysalis clopfic in which she is redeemed, or a dusk shine x chrysalis clopfic with harem?? just a thought. Good job good job!!!
Mr. WriterWriter. PLEASE tell me this is a harem story!!!! I hope spike gets cadence, and maybe celestia, luna, gleaming shield, eris, and chrysalis to boot. But PLEASE tell me it is a harem story!! IS IT??????????
Mr. WriterWriter. THankyouThankyouThankyou!!! I'm ok with no eris and gleaming shield. Yes!! its a harem clopfic!!! How long till the clop begins, may I ask?? As well as, when will the next chapter be out, and when will spike kiss one of the girls?? If It is ok for you to answer them, then fine. if not, I understand. I wont be upset.
8456802 I think it will be Fluttershy or the yellow-gray unicorn. That's my thought on it. As for his first kiss, I'm thinking either one of the Mane 6 or Cadance.
8457050 Have to agree with you. How long till the next chapter, if I may ask?? I am asking cause the story is so good!!! I cant stop reading it. Its perfect!!! Good job
My only problem with this chapter is for all the detail on clothing or lack thereof last chapter, couldn't tell you at all how Twilight, Ember, Rarity, Fluttershy or AJ are dressed here, which feels odd. Aside from that funny as hell, surprised no one actually asked how old he was though.
I love this already.
8452678
So do i
Very good. Can't wait until the girls watch, Spike, hit the gym!
Spike made quite an impression on the girls. I can't wait to see his new living arrangements
The landlords going to get party pied. Wonder if Bon Bon is going to end up with his Other accounts book?
Nice can’t wait for more.
Moar pls
Go for her. She's the only one who seems able to control herself.
8452904
That and being a dragon, she knows how old Spike really is.
8452922
Exactly. She's likely to be one of the few to treat him like an adult.

Thank you for making Dashie well endowed.
8452980

8453014
You can thank Suriano for the pic I got the idea from
8453011
True, but Fluttershy seemed like way too much of the obvious choice. Beside, tell me a smiling Marble Pie isn't adorable as hell.
derpicdn.net/img/2016/6/29/1189170/large.png
Okay, let's see who we've got so far.
Anyone I missed?
8453160
I can PM you with the list we got so far if you want.
8453161
Okay.
8453161
Yes please.
Mahou Sensei Negima. I love it
after looking real close at the cover art will tank have bottle rocket missle pods
8453645
'fraid not. mainly used that pic cause it was a group shot.
8453648
darn oh well still funny thou

C'mon Spike. Ya can't go full harem anime unless you somehow live with/nearby all the girls.
I like this.
Pinkie!
It was only once...............today..............so far
MoonDancer?
8454138
yep.
Excellent chapter!! Cant wait for the clop parts and more chapters. I was like Yes Yes!!!!!! when he met the class and when he said that he was a good cook. I am a good cook as well.

What about a pet? Does Spike have one?
8454403
No pet in this one.
You'll see, it won't be his only appearance
Mr. WriterWriter. PLEASE tell me this is a harem story!!!! I hope spike gets cadence, and maybe celestia, luna, gleaming shield, eris, and chrysalis to boot. But PLEASE tell me it is a harem story!! IS IT??????????
8456121
It is, but Gleaming Shield and Eris aren't in this one.
Mr. WriterWriter. THankyouThankyouThankyou!!! I'm ok with no eris and gleaming shield. Yes!! its a harem clopfic!!! How long till the clop begins, may I ask?? As well as, when will the next chapter be out, and when will spike kiss one of the girls?? If It is ok for you to answer them, then fine. if not, I understand. I wont be upset.
8456135
It be a couple of chapters, but it'll happen. Just relax.
Mr. WriterWriter. I know, I'm just excited. Good luck on the chapters.
I wonder how long it will take before the girls find out how old Spike really is.
8456782
I don't think it will take long. I think they will find out in the next chapter.
8456782
One of them will be the first. I'll you try and guess before the next chapter comes out.
8456802
This may seem obvious, but I'm gonna say Twilight.
8456802
I think it will be Fluttershy or the yellow-gray unicorn. That's my thought on it. As for his first kiss, I'm thinking either one of the Mane 6 or Cadance.
8456802
Ember
8457002
She kinda already figured it out.
8457002
She already knew man. SHes a dragoness. Shes gonna know about that stuff.
8457050
Have to agree with you. How long till the next chapter, if I may ask?? I am asking cause the story is so good!!! I cant stop reading it. Its perfect!!! Good job
8457086
Well, Ember's a given. I mean the ones who don't know.
My only problem with this chapter is for all the detail on clothing or lack thereof last chapter, couldn't tell you at all how Twilight, Ember, Rarity, Fluttershy or AJ are dressed here, which feels odd. Aside from that funny as hell, surprised no one actually asked how old he was though.
8457215
Mostly was worried that it'd get a little boring describing what every girl mentioned was wearing, but they'll get their turns.
As for age, he looks like a 10-year old, so the ones that don't know are assuming he's that age. But they'll start finding out before long.
The first to find out is actually gonna be in this chapter
