Academics Team

Overview

The Professor team is part of the 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 on the effort and creativity!

Rank Descriptions

Class Helper

Class Helper is the entry rank into the Professor team. It is a trial to become a Professor. They help out in classes, answer questions, enforce rules, as well as interacting with the students! Members have the option of staying in this rank if they do not wish to teach classes themselves.

Jr. Professor

Jr. Professor inherits most the duties of Class Helpers, but are now able to teach their own classes! They are responsible for creating lesson plans and teaching them to the students. They are also expected to help in classes when no Class Helpers are available.

Sr. Professor

Jr. Professor and Sr. Professor are very similar, but there is one main difference between the two roles: mentoring! Sr. Professors are allowed to mentor staff members within the team. As a mentor, their job is to help their mentee improve both Academics-wise and as a staff member overall.

Academics Advisor

The Academics Advisor serves as a bridge between the Professors/Class Helpers and the leadership of the Academics department. They help to organise the team and improve lesson plans Professors make.

Academics Lead

The Academics Lead works closely with the head of the Academics team. They work to give final approval on interactive lesson plans, make changes to the department seen fit, and even train members of the team.
