Charms 3: Block 7, Monday and Wednesday (Afternoon: 4:00-5:00)Professor Ye (Lola Mutan Ye) Professor Ye's OfficeThis class is updated on Saturday (real time).

xxxxAbout the Professor: Professor Lola Mutan Ye, or Professor Ye, was born in New Forest. She is the first born child of a Chinese wandmaker and a wood nymph. She has a younger brother that now runs a wood farm that provides quality supplies for wands and brooms.
As a student at Hogwarts, Lola was a Ravenclaw, the Captain of the Ravenclaw quidditch team, and excelled in Charms, Herbology, Transfiguration, and Arithmancy. She was known to be a quiet student who was dedicated to her studies and fascinated by inventing new solutions to the world around her.
After Hogwarts she traveled to China where she began an apprenticeship with a metal charmer arranged by her grandfather. Some years later she returned to England satisfied she was ready to set out on her own. Lola has supplied some of the most popular shops in England and the rest of the United Kingdom with charmed toys elegantly designed in metal and snitches. While snitches have been her most demanded product due to the popularity of snitches, her pet collection has been very popular most often featuring kittens or puppies that act as if the real thing (without the mess or concern of allergy).
_____________________________________
Professor Ye's Charms Classroom is a bit different than the Charms classrooms of the past. While it still maintains its traditional set up of two sets of two rows of benches on either side of the classroom with a short dueling range in the center and a podium at the front, the décor of the classroom is new. In the front and surrounding the dueling range are plants of all sorts. Some are benign flowers, some are poisonous. Some are ferns. Some are mushrooms. And some are magical plants including three juvenile (and potted) mandrakes near the podium. If one did not know better they might think they were in a class about herbology.

Lola Mutan Ye (Ravenclaw Alumna)(Half Nymph)(Metal Charmer)(Professor of Charms Years 1-3)
❤ In many ways Lola was nervous to start her role at Hogwarts. She had worked only for herself for years and now there was structure to her plans. The classroom was overflowing with plants from the benign muggle plants, to poisonous, and even a few young mandrakes. Despite the green that seemed to blossom as Lola spoke she was not the herbology professor. She was teaching Charms to the youngest of the students of Hogwarts, including her nephew Nic. Dressed in denim, a striped t-shirt, and a light black vegan leather jacket, she paced in her black hiking boots. She paused when the door opened to Nic being one of the first. "Nic!" She exclaimed. "One of the first, too..."
Nic squinted at his aunt, "I still think Dad put you up to this" before sitting near the middle of the classroom.
Lola rolled her eyes not in the mood to argue with a thirteen year old. She remembered how lost that age felt and Nic did not have it easy with what happened with his mother. Besides, Lola had other students to worry about. She was not going to show favoritism.
As the bells struck time to begin, Lola smiled at the third years in front of her. She began her welcome to the class, "As you can guess I am your new professor Lola Ye. Unfortunately or fortunately for some, perhaps, this will be our first and last year together. My office will always be open for now and the future for you. Since graduating Hogwarts I have worked as a metal charmer. It has been my great joy to bring magic and enjoyment to the homes and..." she smiled and pulled out a golden snitch she had created from her pocket, "...pitches across England."
The snitch took flight across the class before darting outside the window, "It will find its way home in time. Now, I doubt you need me to tell you the wonders of charmwork. Shall we begin?"
Lola flicked her wand and a page of parchment found its way in front of each student.
Third Year Syllabus [ ] Cheering Charm [ ] Carpe Retractum [ ] Colour Change Charm [ ] Glacius
She barely addressed the syllabus as she continued, "As you can see, we will be mastering the Cheering Charm, today. While I do not find the false cheer it may bring the inflicted particularly useful, I do find that it is a rather kind way to get the upper hand in a duel. Cheering Charms bring a sense of elation to the target and if over done can cause uncontrolled laughter."
She raised her wand and demonstrated the following motion:
"I will want you each to pair up with the student next to you and alternate between completing the motion I've demonstrated paired with the incantation you can find in your book. If the Cheering Charm has not been overdone on you, you should still be able to complete the charm on your partner. It'll be nice to see only smiles in the first week of school coming out of a charms class with a new teacher, right?" She ended on a bit of a joke. Growing more serious, "If you have any questions or concerns please wave me over, I will be around the room observing."

But the stars don't shine, they burn The constellations glow The seasons change in turn
Charms had always been Charlotte's best subject and had thus become one of her favorite classes. What could she say? She liked doing things she was good at. She entered the classroom and took a desk, taking a few seconds to organize her things before the professor started speaking. Professor Ye definitely had a different vibe than some of the other professors, but Charlotte always liked seeing how different personalities affected teaching. And she had to admit, she was enraptured by the snitch for the moment before it zoomed off.
Once the piece of parchment had come to their desk Charlotte found herself subconsciously doodling little swirls with her quill in the corner of her paper as Professor Ye continued speaking. When the assignment was given Charlotte found herself looking next to her for the first time. She smiled slightly at what she saw. "Hello Ethan," she said. She'd run into the Ravenclaw boy a time or two in the past and she was perfectly happy for an opportunity to get to know him better, even if it was just teaming up in class. "So you think you can make me smile?" She asked, immediately breaking into a smile. "Well, I guess you won't have to try too hard."
