Watching as some just got up and left and others were dragged out. He took this as a chance to continue his observation. The one leaving and dragging his relative he would be keeping an eye on. There was something about that child that he was struggling with. Had he not found his potential yet or was he just that against learning? He fully saw potential in the other one and he was going to hope that he didn't allow anyone to take him down in their own plan of destruction.
Turning back to the class he said goodbyes to the ones that spoke and nodded to the ones that said the lesson was a good one. He was glad that some enjoyed his little test. It was easy enough and it was exactly what he wanted it to be. Honestly he was thrilled with the amount of help and effort all of them put forward. It seemed that at least one student was wanting to practice and Julien moved towards her as she asked a question.

She sat back down and aimed her wand at it. "Alohomora." The box clicked unlocked. "Colloportus." The box clicked locked. Then a minute or two later, unlocked itself again. Haddie sighed. "Colloportus!" It clicked itself locked again. While she waited, she turned to the box she'd earned in one of the challenges, the one she'd been practicing on while waiting. "Alohomora." Might as well practice on all the boxes while waiting to see if the charm stuck or not.
Only this time, it wasn't Colloportus she had issues with. The box unlocked itself, and then not a minute later, re-locked itself. "Mr. Primeaux? I seem to have trouble countering my own charms. I can't get the counter-charms to stay, um... charmed."
"Concentration and practice are the two biggest things you need as a first year trying to do any charms. You have got the wand movement it seems, but just make sure your grip is firm and your voice is clear." Any hesitation and it wouldn't fully work.
"Your determination will get you far and practicing will help. Go ahead and try again."
