I am most pleased you enjoyed yourself. You ought be proud; you held your own admirably, more so than even some of the regulars. You have quite the natural talent, and unlike many to whom such skills come easily, you are equally willing to spend the time and effort necesary to hone it. Teaching you is no trouble at all -- indeed, I find it immensely rewarding.
And thank you. It is true that Hogwarts is without peer, but also true that we ought all seek to constantly better ourselves. I hope to do what I can to elevate my dear alma mater closer to her original status as the utmost name in wizarding education, turning out witches and wizards who are well-rounded, well-educated, and ready to step seamlessly into their future as the Protectorate's sinews. Certainly it will not be an immediate change, but I am looking forward to the challenge; it will be quite the adventure.
