It was official. The school year had started. Students arrived on the train over the hours. Catching up with old friends and meeting new people. The first years took the boats to the school while the older students went by the carriages. Gabriele was one of those people who had rode the train to Hogwarts. She had remained in the teachers cart ignoring most people as she looked over her attendance list slowly. She wanted to learn every ones name, before the class begin. The train came to a slow stop and she had grabbed her luggage off of the top bar. She had enjoyed the feast and the sorting ceremony. It was different than at Durmstrang.
That was her first night. Now it was time for class. She had many students attending her class. Some attending because they have too, others because they enjoyed the class. She had taken over from Professor Rafael Ochoa. He had gone back to the Aurors, or at least that is what she was told. Either way, she was going to do her best to meet his standards with the class. She had been spending the first few hours of that morning sorting her class room and making it look nice, well nice for her. She wanted it to be somewhat like home.
She had her first class that morning. First, Second and Third years. It was an easy class. She recapped with the third years on what they learned, and the second years. The first years she introdcued the class. She would have to assign different assighments for them, but oh well. She looked at the time as looked to see what her next class would be. Fourth and Fifth years. Easy enough. She read her lesson plan and then remembered that the Fifth Years would be taking O.W.Ls. She would have to give O.W.L lessons to both years. Atleast that would be somewhat easier than the 1st-3rd years. With O.W.L lessons she could teach the same thing for them both. Mostly because when the 4th years became 5th years, the O.W.Ls they would take would be different, so atleast they would learn something different.
She sighed and looked at the clock. 5 Minutes until class began. She looked to the door waiting for the students to arrive.
