[ Following her conversation with the Minister, it has been decided that Helga will return to Hogwarts to teach, but as she cannot take the place of any of the currently employed teachers (nor would she want to), her subject is left up to her discretion. Left with so many options, she decides to take a poll: ]

Dearest gathered magical community, I have a question for you: (Specifically those of you who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry)

Thinking back on your education there, were there any subjects which were not taught, that you would have liked to have seen? Or any areas which could do with further exploration? Having so recently come to this time from the past, I am having difficulty gauging the lesson style an average student these days might be used to seeing. Is there any magic that has fallen out of favor that could do with revival?

My many thanks for your responses.

Regards,
H. Hufflepuff

My, what a comprehensive list. I think I can certainly cover some of those!

I'm at Hogwarts as well, if you'd like to talk about the modern fixtures, sometime.

[ Because Antonin and Severus share something of a hobby -- ]

I rather like the idea of spellcrafting being taught to students, though I imagine that it would be quite difficult.

Perhaps it is a course best saved for the older students. But yes, I do think it's an interesting idea.

It was hobby of mine, since I was a young child, so perhaps I am biased. An easier class might suit you better.

Healing magic, perhaps? Basic first medical first aid is something that I would have wanted to know as a young kid.
