"A first year class, oui?" He did agree with having a set course on proper etiquette and manners mentioned to the school, but he definitely wasn't going to be the one to say it to their headmaster. Would be rude! He wouldn't mind other people mentioning it to him though. Hesitantly taking a bite of what seemed to be a British food, he chewed for a moment, trying to decide if he liked it or not when Sandra had asked about classes.
"A few, maybe." he said after swallowing. Particularly their charms and transfiguration classes, just to see if they were teaching anything that he didn't already know. "It would be nice to see how zese zings differ from our school. But I am all for continuing my independent studies if I do not enjoy ze classes." Heck, he'd be fine with just studying on his own, but while he was at the school, might as well get to know everything about it. As well as what they really are studying and how far along they are with their knowledge.
Nothing like getting an up close look at your competition. "And you az well?"
She glanced over at the students again. Most of them seemed older than first year, so it would be too late for them to take the class, but it wasn't too late for the incoming students.
"A first year class sounds good. Start vhile they're young." It just might be too late for the older ones. She didn't know how they would get the class started though. Would it be rude to suggest it to one of the professors? Probably. And she doubted that her headmaster would be pleased if she politely insulted the students of Hogvarts.
"I hope to see hov their teachings differ from our ovn as vell." She said inbetween sips of her butterbeer. It seemed the only thing that tasted the same as what they feed her at Durmstrang.
"Especially their defense and potions class." Needed to know how the competition trained. Potions was more of her personal hobby, so hopefully they had a room where she could continue her studies in the subject.
"You vouldn't have to study alone. I could always use someone to study vith." Not that she didn't have her own classmates, but she liked Noel and he seemed intelligent enough not to hinder her studies if they worked together.
