Most sailors work up to larger boats unless they happen to crew on a larger boat and get their experience that way. Big boats aren't necessarily harder to handle they are just more to handle. Smaller is simpler but sometimes things can happen really fast on a small boat.
Since you don't know what heeling is called and how it effects the boats motion, seed, hull, and sails, it would be good to do a little reading. It will help you to learn how the sail shape affects the speed and how you want the sailes shaped and how to control the shape, reading will help with this plus you will really start to enjoy sailing much more. So much is going on than you aren't aware of when you first start. It also will provide you with questions to ask a instructor if you go that route.
It is a great you are asking questions I would say that is a clear sign you enjoyed yourself.
