He repeated the circle with the professor's correction a few times, just to make sure his arm would settle into moving like that. When he was sure, he halted the movement and listened very closely to the way the professor said the spell.
Viseo Ebullio... he wrinkled his nose a little at the incantation. This was the part that was the most difficult for him, because his tongue still hadn't settled into spells like this just yet. He set his hands in his lap, holding his wand carefully as he slowly repeated the spell. "Viseo... Ebullio... Vi seo Eb ullio... Viseo Ebullio..."
He repeated it a few more times, voice tentative and soft, before looking up at the professor and nodding. It wasn't too difficult to say. He could do that. The boy held his wand up again, ready to repeat the wand movement and the spell at the same time. Clear... and with determination. He frowned a bit in focus.
"Viseo Ebullio," he said as confidently as he could manage, eyes going to his hand to watch as he moved his wand. He was super careful to make sure that he kept the circle tight, his hand giving a slight twitch as it completed the circle and he looked around. "Ahh... I didn't do it right, I think..."
Julien watched as he practiced the words and the movements.
"Good, good. Now if you just put them together. You might not do it right off the bat, but practicing like this will make it come easier and faster than it would have if you waited until the correct year." The first year had determination. That was the first step of being a great wizard.
As he watched Jaemin do the entire charm he wasn't surprised when it didn't work.
"You have everything correct and I know with more practice you will probably be the first in your year to get this right. Just keep working on it and I know you'll get it. Make sure you are confident in yourself as the more confidence that comes out in your voice the more your spell and wand will work for you." He had watched many good wizards fail at charms because their lack of confidence made their wands not want to work with them.
Moving back to his seat behind his desk he watched Jaemin a bit longer,
"I have nothing for awhile if you'd like to stay and practice or if you'd feel more comfortable somewhere else that's fine as well. You are doing very well though." Quote:

Hahahahahahaha.
"Oh, I was just doing a little redecorating," he grinned. "Whaddya think? It's much more livened up now!" As in hilarious. And not nearly as boring.
Oh, and look! There was his food fight buddy! "Come on in, it's a PARTY!" Peeves began spinning around and bouncing off the walls. It was too bad he had used up all the cans of silly string he had brought, but maybe there was something else in this newly decorated office he could have fun with. Or maybe food fight buddy brought something along with her. And Peeves responded to the girl's remark with a big ol' raspberry in her face before bouncing off the walls again. Silly humans didn't really think he'd flee at mere mention of the Baron's name, did they? PSH.

She shrugged and gave Professor Primeaux a Well, I tried, look. "Peeves," she offered. "If you leave Professor Primeaux alone so I can meet with him, I'll help you cause trouble somewhere else later." How did that sound? She was doubtful the poltergeist would take the offer, but you never know, it might work. Getting into trouble was always more fun with someone else joining in.
He eyed the girl that just walked in and started about the Baron. Not the best tactic with Peeves, he knew it was a good threat, but usually with children he wouldn't take it as serious.
"I do not want my office redone. If I did I would do it myself, but thank you for the effort." He was staying calm, see? There was a student so he would, but his tone of voice had annoyance. BIG annoyance!
"It is NOT a party. Peeves was just leaving." Pulling his wand he cleaned off his portraits of his family first. That was just unacceptable. Looking at the girl as she spoke again he gave her a look,
"No you will not or you will find yourself in detention." No one should help this blasted thing with any of his pranks. I will have order in this office or I will have to resort to something you will not like. He pointed his wand at peeves, he remembered that fun little charm didn't he?
