Thanks a lot, Clive.

Please clarify who you mean by 'us'.
Do you mean all the students in the class? Or do you mean eg you and your 3 friends?

I see. Is there a way of saying it but meaning 'the three of us and not entire class'. Something like 'I hope he passes the three of us the class'?

If you mean you and your 3 friends, say
