Quite pleased, given that some of the material is quite new to me - and some of it, I'm not sure I'd have chosen to teach to students this age, but the Ministry feels it knows best. I do what I can to make various points about what they've covered in classes and what's several steps ahead of them. At the same time, after the past year (and the previous one, for that matter) it's hard to argue that more defense training, and even offensive spell work wouldn't be useful.
Your colleagues from St. Mungo's who are teaching strike me as very competent, though, which is reassuring, in case anything does go off.
Mum sends her regards, and I've a few more things for you to look at from her research when I see you next. (They take some explaining, or I'd just owl them.)
Having time with her was very good - after such a horrible end of term, it was good to be somewhere less demanding for a little bit. I did take a day or two to go walking in the area, with our old tent, and that was good too, to actually be alone for a bit. I spent a slightly absurd amount of that time in tears, but better when by myself than earlier, I suppose.
