its due to stability of rection intermediates,esterification takes place thru carbocation mechanism
Benzyl>Phenyl>Primary (stability order of carbocations)

It depends on stability and hindrance factor of alcohols both....hindrance gets higher preference..
well see the hindrance for each compound
bulkiness of the gp after Oxygen
more the hindrance more will be ease to remove ---OH from acid hence faster the ease of esterification.
it is A>C>B
both alcohols and acids slows done their rate of esterification as the bulky group increases in their alpha carbon ...
in alcohols ..... reaction rate will be 1° >2°>3°
if this is right, will show the diagram !
