"For our first lesson, I'm not going to tolerate anyone who waves their twigs and say the incantation. Now, you each have raw magic inside you, use it. It's going to be hard when using a twig but this will teach you to channel your magic. When you use a wand it helps you do magic by channeling it. The twig blocks it in a way so if you can do it, good, if you can't that's fine. This spell is a very simple one just say 'Lumos' and channel your magic. You may begin.
Seconds later cries of 'Lumos' were heard and several wands were lit including: Harry, Neville, Sally, Selene, Tom, Hermione, Daphne and Susan.
"Ok, now, anyone who lit their twig preform the counter, say 'Nox' and feel your magic returning to you. Very good. Oh, time's up. Class dismissed. Meet me in the potion's lab right next door.

"Can you believe we're actually going to learn Gobbledygook." said Daphne
"And Mermish." Added Tracy
"What about Healing, I am appalled they don't teach it at Hogwarts. Someone could actually die by the time help comes." Said Hermione
"I know. What about wizarding studies, are they really such bigots they can't offer a class for muggleborns to ease them into the magical world." Said Padma
"Professor Potter told me muggle studies at Hogwarts is outdated by about 150 years. And that was when SHE was at school." Said Selene
"She told me that in 3 months, if we work really hard, she will offer us 2 field trips, one to a muggle amusement park, and another to the ministry of magic. Aunt Amelia said we could watch the auror training." said Susan
By the time Professor Potter entered the hall they were all discussing the departments in the Ministry of Magic.
"Come on class, said Lily, let's hurry to DADA.
