"Alright, alright."
Gnaeus announced and clapped his hands twice to get the students' attention. "Third and fourth years can start practicing the Hurling Hex. Fifth through seventh year students can begin practicing the Stunning Spell.
The incantation for the Hurling Hex is 'Everte Statum' and the wand movement is a flick. The incantation for the Stunning Spell is 'Stupify' and the wand movement is pointing the wand at the target. The purpose of this is to increase the power of your Shield Charm, so if you still can't protect against a Knockback Jinx, don't move on just yet.
Remember, intent is of the utmost importance, so concentrate. Protego means 'I protect,' so you have to mean it when you say it, and not just say it because you have to. Precise wand movement will increase your chances of success.
Carry on."
