I don't have an experience of deploying Jupyterhub, but for experiments 
have installed a Jupyterhub server on a ubuntu machine. 

Jupyterhub is really just a hub for Jupyter notebooks. A user, after login 
in the login webpage, have a Jupyter notebook runnng with his(her) own 
account of the machine. So it is like the user login to a machine and run a 
Jupyter notebook in the shell and use the notebook on a web browser.  

For me, a big concern of running Jupyterhub on my machine is security. If 
you give an id and passwd to a user (say a student), then (s)he can 
whatever you can do on a linux machine with internet connection. There is 
not much you can do for this issue as, I think, an objective of Jupyter 
notebook design is to give the legitimate user the full computing power and 
resources available. In other words, Jupyter notebook is designed for a 
scientist. That is not for a student who can misuse the power.

A possible solution would be to isolate the machine as much as possible. 
Obviously you cannot cut the internet connection from the machine. All I 
could do is to put the machine to a vm.

I gave up running Jupyterhub for my class, for the above and other reasons. 
For the security concern, it seems the old sage notebook is better suited 
for classes with students.
