Private Mages and Magic Teachers

"Wonderful," Celeste replied, genuinely happy that Isabella was open to taking a few cooking classes with her along with the tutoring. She honestly believed that one discipline fed into the other, and a good potion master was often a good cook.

"Have you ever had any experience cooking before now?" Celeste asked very curious about Isabella, and wanting to a little more about her.

"That's fine," Celeste said as she looked at Isabella and gave her a reassuring smile. "It wouldn't have been too much of a problem if you hadn't ever had any kitchen experience. It just makes it a tad easier if you know the basics," she explained.

"I have a cooking class Wednesday afternoon at three," she said as she took out her class schedule and scanned it.

"If you wanted you can stop by, get a feel for some of the basics, and then on Monday afternoon, if you are free, we can begin tutoring," Celeste suggested as she looked to Isabella for confirmation.

"That sounds great," Celeste smiled as she got up out of her seat and went over to her filing cabinet where she opened the top drawer and pulled out a form to give to Isabella to fill out.

"Here's a questionnaire of sorts. It's just about which magics you are familiar with and what you already know about them," she explained as she gave the young woman the form to fill out.

"And no, you don't really need to bring anything to the sessions except maybe a notebook, a pad of paper or some kind of device to write down and keep a record of your notes," Celeste informed Isabella.

"At the moment there are four, no five, other mages in my tutoring classes," Celeste told Isabella as she named the students off, mentioning Shiro Yoshida, and her son, Azure among her the group.

"Not all of them are in the same classes at the same time of course," Celeste explained.
