Academics Team

Overview

The Professor Team is the overall Academics department. Their mission is to provide the most educational and enjoyable magical classes to the students. This team works hard to create lesson plans on topics such as magical creatures, spells, and plants for everyone to learn about. The Professor Team also works behind the scenes to create interactive lesson plans to be used, such as collecting your own ingredients in Potions class or feeding some Hippogriffs! In classes, this team works to provide information about the topic, and grades your assignments based off of the effort and creativity! 

The Professor Team is structured differently from the other departments on Potterworld. Branches are not found within the Professor Team, unlike other departments such as Media or Community Management.
