Each week the Daily Prophet will feature an interview with one of our own Professor's from Hogwarts. This week it is one of our newer teachers, Lena Kyle!
Your full name?: Lena Marie Kyle
Where were you born?: York, England
Do your parents still live there?: Yes, my father and mother's relatives all still live there
Do you have any siblings?: No
If so are you close?:
What you prefer to be called by faculty and students?: Lena is just fine with me.
Where did you receive your education?: Middle England School of Magic.
What subject do you teach here?: I teach Languages of the World and Muggle Studies.
Have you always been interested in the subject?: I have always loved learning about different languages, so I was really excited to be able to teach them. I grew up in muggle society, so muggle studies reminds me of my childhood.
How: have your classes been going so far?: Well, the students that show up are really great and nice. Homework is the only problem, I have had only one student turn in her homework, that really annoys me.
Anything else you'd like your students, fellow staff Wizards to know about you?: I am not very shy, and I don't like lazy people. Turn in your homework and come to class and you will be just fine. I am a great listener, so if you have any problems I will be more than willing to listen and help.
Should you wish to be the next Professor featured in the next "Getting to Know You", please PM me!

This week, I sat down with HM Hells. Here's what she had to say:
What is your full name?: Mistress Hells Dumbledore Where were you born?: Hogsmeade Do your parents still live there?:My mother, Deborah Weasley lives in Hogsmeade, with my stepfather. They re-appeared after having been hidden by my grandfather during the last war. Do you have any siblings?: *sigh* Not anymore If so are you close?: to my parents yes What do you prefer to be called by faculty and students?: Hells, Mistress Hells, either of them. Where did you receive your education?: Hogwarts, the best school you can go too. What subject and other positions do you teach/have here?: Aswell as being Headmistress, I am also professor of Apparation, Care of Magical Creatures, and Divination. Have you always been interested in the subject?: Divination was taken on because of my late great aunty, who pretended to be a seer, when really she just bought the early morning papers. COMC, I have a great fascination with creatures, with exception of Acromantulas, and as for Apparation, I wanted to teach the students how not to splinch themselves. How have your classes been going so far?:Good good, Especially when Students attend, and hand in homework. It hurts me to see students who do not wish to learn Anything else you'd like your students, fellow staff Wizards to know about you? Cursed in the love department, so don't fall in love with me, unless you want to live the rest of your days as a ghost. I am highly skilled in many fields of magic, but cursed with the ability to see in to peoples souls, which came about when my grandmother, whilst pregnant with my mother, had her soul sucked out of her by a dementor. Long and boring story, but good if you are suffering from insomnia.... Oh, and I love Iced mice, and lilies as presents. So if we've all learned anything from this it's that we should run down to the candy shop and buy all the ice mice we can carry, and flowers too!
As always please PM me if you'd like to be interviewed.

Right so due to some personal issues I regretably have been away. But I have a treat this is the first of two professor interviews to be posted. So enjoy!
What is your full name?: Dahlia Katlyn Noirre Alexander Where were you born?: Carnac, Bretagne, France Do your parents still live there?: My mother is deceased, and my father now lives in Epsom, in Surrey, England. Do you have any siblings?: One half-sister, Maia Burgess. Are you close?: No. We barely know one another. What do you prefer to be called by faculty and students?: Dahlia or Professor Alexander. Where did you receive your education?: Beauxbatons Academy, where I excelled in Arithmancy and English. What subject do you teach here?: I am the newest Arithmancy professor, and I intend to keep my post. Have you always been interested in the subject?: I always had an affinity for numbers and a skill with language, so it made sense that I would find myself attracted to the subject. How have your classes been going so far?: I...really have just gotten unpacked, and have been sorting through the previous professors' lesson plans. I haven't quite gotten settled yet! Anything else you'd like your students, fellow staff Wizards to know about you?: I recognize my position as an authority figure, but am more than willing to take suggestions and comments seriously, from both staff and students, especially those who have been here longer than I. I am not close with my family, or even my extended family, and though I am a solitary person for the most part, I...will accept companionship...*blushes* Never mind, you don't want to hear all that...
