A student is a person who studies at a school, college or university.
The idea
Use a student for one and students for several. A subject may come before student: a music student. Say a student at the university for a place of study.
Examples
- I am a student.
- She is a student at the university.

- There are twelve students in the class.
- He is a music student.
- The student reads a new word.
