He walks around giving small bits of instruction in enunciation and how to wave the wand for maximum effect. Each student he stops to help seems to have a better feel for it after, he passes by Donall and Isabelle.
"Did well there Donall, a bit more of a flick at the last part on the wand, kinda like cracking a whip. Miss Isabelle, lets see you try."

"Well, it's still a good start, you know. You'll get there." She said, smiling at Dónall, with a hint of condescension in the tone of her voice.
After the teacher reached them and invited her to try, she smiled confidently and waved her wand.
"Abdo Egonim!"
The Pillow vanished, and Isabelle let out a proud squeal.

Don managed to let out a smile as the professor approached, a small feat all in itself. Then as the professor walked away and Isabelle said her spell, he watched intently.
"Wicked." he said, a touch of admiration in his voice. "That was pretty good."

"Very good indeed Miss Wesker!"
He smiles and waves his own wand to bring it back into visibility, and then makes his way more to the center of the class.
"The very nature of this spell changes with whatever it is your trying to mask. Hidding a tent with people in it for instance requires more time and concentration, hidding powerful magical artifacts as well.
Examples of such hidding would be the Quidditch World cup, where many Ministry Wizards are called in to keep re-casting this spell in order to keep it invisible to the Muggle world.
Duration as well depends on how much strength you put into your cast, as the spell itself, if weakly cast, will fade rather quickly."

Isabelle looked a little disarmed by Dónall's compliment, for a few seconds.
"Uh... Thank you, Kennedy... I guess I did the 'whipcracking' right..."
After the teacher cancelled her spell and adressed the class, she looked over at Dónall again.
"Well then, you should try again. I think you got the mental focus right, you just need to correct your movement." she said, flicking her wand without casting.

Donall nodded in understanding, and corrected his wand movement as he cast his spell once more. "Abdo Egonim!" he cried.
Pleased with his work, he watched wide eyed as the pillow disappeared once more, to stay that way until he lifted the spell with a "Finite Incantatum."
He stayed quiet, awaiting further instructions or the end of class. Whichever came sooner. He felt accomplished, and wished to move on.

After a few more practices, Syhinad waves the stop.
"Allright class, good effort. If you need to practice some more, please do so, we'll have a miniature quizz next class, you have to make your pillow disappear for 3 minutes. You only have one time you can retry.
Homework is 6 inches of parchment on ministry standards on how this spell is to be used, that way you know you won't be breaking any laws in the future."
He smiles good naturedly, and dismisses the class.

Isabelle was beaming in confidence, not even bothering to practive again as she looked over to her friends on the next table over. Sera was struggling with the spell a bit, but she eventually got it.
When the professor dismissed the class, she turned to Dónall and patted him on the shoulder as she stood up.
"Well then, good job, Kennedy! See you later."
Well, that wasn't so bad. Teaming up with a Slytherin, I'd have expected to come out covered in slime!
She then joined her friends as they left the class, discussing the possible fun uses of the spell in everyday life.
