To say the very least, Zara was pissed. Not only had she been moved from one class to the other, she had been forced to join a class where the LAST teacher, hadn't even left a class lesson plan of any sort, just a list of who was in the class. Zara glared at the board for a long moment, it simply had PROFESSOR ELLIS, written across it in large letters. She sat behind her desk, rapping it with her fingernails, staring at a Charms book. Zara had been pretty good at Charms in school. It wasn't one of her best classes, nor was it her worst, she blended into the crowd in this class, did her work, got a passing grade, took a NEWT class on it, nothing special, but there was no way she had actually thought she'd be TEACHING it in her life. Seeing as teaching wasn't her fortay, killing and torturing.. that was another thing, but teaching kids who were naive and didn't know their proper place in the world.. well it pissed her off.
Zara pulled out her wand and unlocked the door and it flew open with a bang, which startled the students who had lined up outside, heads poked out from behind others to look into the classroom as they filed in, and made their way to their seats, a few of them whispering to each other as they sat down. Zara waited until everyone was in, and then flicked her wand at the door, and it closed with a sharp snap. The room went silent, and Zara slowly stood up. The fire was behind her, and the room was pretty dark. "Hello class.." She said lightly, her hand clenching her wand as she moved from in front of the fire so they could see her properly. "I am Professor Ellis, You're new Charms teacher.." She said and let that sink in.
"As far as I can see, you're last teacher was a nitwit.. and didn't know how to keep records properly. So I have no idea what your lesson plan was from her, or what you've already done, so I will start off today's class, with the simple question. What have you already done? Knowing Basic level classes well enough, I know it's hard for you to understand what I'm saying..." She said lightly as though it were a simple thing to say. She flicked her wand and her question replaced her name on the board. "What have you already done? Anyone? Anyone?" She asked and strolled out from behind her desk to walk down the aisle between desks and back.
