Hello students, I am Professor Remus Lupin, a returning teacher to Hogwarts--some of you may remember me, others may have not had the experience of having class with me yet. As you know, this class is devoted to learning about the Dark Arts and becoming able to react appropriately in situations where you may face this type of magic.
So first a few things about myself. I was a past student at Hogwarts, many years ago, and a good friend to both Albus Dumbledore and Headmistress McGonagall. Seeing as many of you know already, I feel it is important I say this right up front. I am indeed a werewolf, but this condition only overwhelmes me once a month, and during that time I can assure you that I will be out of sight and completely harmless to any of you.
Secondly, I believe that learning about mystical creatures and the spells necessary to defend yourself are best learned if practiced. We will be doing some work out of the book, but be prepared for many hands on days, where we will be actively working against various creatures or practicing various spells. There is a possibility that some of these creatures we face are frightening, and I ask anyone with any concerns to speak to me before we begin the lesson so that we may work out an agreement.
I am looking forward to teaching and meeting all of you.
Sincerely, Pr. RJ Lupin.
