What about Minerva? The one Who bought Harry a new broom? Got hit By spells from Umbridge while protecting her students and Harry? Genuinely cared about Harry and said he’s not a piece of meat? Didn’t let Harry go to hogsmede because he Hadn’t gotten the paper signed but mainly because there was killer on the loose? Chose not to expel Ron and Harry? Remus might be a father figure and a teacher to Harry but he wasn’t the best teacher to Harry he was only a teacher for one year while Minerva taught Harry for years and protected Harry from harm as best as she could but so did Remus tbh I feel li,e Minerva is severely underrated

It wasn't just to eat but, specifically, to eat chocolate after a dementor attack. You don't get any more than that in the movies. It's basically just "Here, have a candy bar. You'll feel better," and that's it. In the books, however, Madam Pomfrey, the Hogwarts school healer, remarks something to the effect of, "It's good that some people still know the old cures" when she is told that Lupin gave them chocolate after the dementor attack, and at the end of "The Prisoner of Azkaban" she makes Harry & Hermione eat chocolate to help them recover from being attacked by the dementors. In the movie, it only shows Harry & Sirius being attacked by the dementors there on the lakeshore, but in the book, Hermione is also with them. She wasn't attacked as badly as Harry & Sirius. The dementors attempted to administer their fatal kiss to both of them before they were driven off by Harry's patronas, but the attack on Hermione was still serious enough to leave her unconscious for quite some time. Madam Pomfrey made both her & Harry eat several pieces of chocolate to help them recover.

I’d say Harry Potter deserves a spot, he essentially was the DADA teacher in replace of of Umbridge

I would have switched Quirrell and Lockhart. Also, people tend to put Snape high when they make this list but something to consider is that although Snape was the most talented and powerful out of all of these teachers, I would argue that he wasn't a good teacher. The reason people tended to do terribly in his potion class was that he was overly harsh and played favorites. Harry even commented on this when he was taking his potions OWL. His test went much better than expected because Snape wasn't there. I'm sure it would have been the same when he taught DADA. When people are naturals at a skill, like Snape was with magic, they tend to be terrible at teaching people that same skill. Teaching is a skill all its own and it was one that Snape didn't have. He was unquestionably an amazing wizard but a terrible teacher.

I think the idea behind Snape being a good teacher was because he became a lot more relaxed with DADA compared to potions.

I have only one difference in my ranking - Snape is even lower with me, under Quirrell and Lockhart, but above Carrow and Umbridge. The reasoning is, while Snape was a great expert on both dark arts and DADA and his teachings were very valuable, he was a bad teacher. Blatant favoritism combined with bullying attitude and using dread as a tool in teaching merges into a teacher that's so hurtful to his students' psyche that it offsets his undeniable expertise, ranking him IMO below the "blanks". I'm a teacher myself and, while neither is good, I would far rather "teach like Quirrell" than "teach like Snape". That said, Lupin, McGonagall, Flitwick and Sprout were the best teachers Hogwats had. I aspire specifically to teach like somewhere between Lupin and Flitwick.

@chocochipjewel

2 жыл бұрын

@@Alche_mist You make a valid point. I'm still a student, and if I had a teacher like Snape, I don't think I would even want to attend the school anymore. His treatment of the Gryffindors, Harry and Neville in particular, are so hard to excuse. That said, he was knowledgeable about the dark arts, and that has to account for something, especially cause I can't say Lockhart was especially knowledgeable about anything other than memory magic. Quirrel didn't seem particularly skillful in anything either. So based off of that, I ranked him higher. But if I was ranking them based off of how they treat the class, Snape would be just above Carrow. Lupin, Flitwick, Sprout, and McGonagall are definitely the best teachers there, I agree with you on that. Slughorn seems pretty good as well, but his favoritism is a flaw, as the whole concept of the Slug Club is built off his ambition to have the best students with him.

I actually think that real Mad-Eye Moody would be a pretty good teacher for DADA. He has huge experience, nobody dares to slack in his class and he would for sure teach them the most useful, practical things, even if it's against the curriculum. His attitude with "Constant Vigilance" is just what people needed to learn when the war was about to break.

Lupin was the best DADA teacher in my opinion. He knew what he was doing, he liked his job, he was good at teaching, and was understanding, different from Snape, who though very talented, was more focused on bullying students rather than teaching them. Barty Crouch as Mad-Eye Moody actually taught them some useful spells as well, kind of prepared Harry to duel Voldemort in that Graveyard.

Students can then find out how to defend against it. Even though he was a very bad teacher, he was still better than Umbitch. #4: Lockhart: The video explained enough :) #3: Quirrel: He still taught the students about DADA, so not DA like Carrow, and he really thaught the students something, unlike Umbitch, and he was more capable than Lockhart. #2: Severus Snape: Plenty of knowledge about the subject, really taught DADA and the students learnt a lot. However, we're still talking about Snape, so if you're not a Slytherin you'll still have a hard time when you're in his classroom (understatement). #1: Lupin and Moody/Crouch jr.: They both were excellent teachers. Lupin knew a lot about dark creatures and how to deal with them. Moody/Crouch jr. knew a lot about dark wizards, dark spells etc and how to deal with them. He even taught the students how to break out of the imperius charm (books, not the movie). Because of this they are both #1 Edit: I know it's spelled "Umbridge"

Carrow: he taught them dark arts Instead of defence, so if I were to play devils advocate he would of been a great teacher for dark arts. Snape: Good teacher and had clear knowledge I was considering putting him in second place but but there was someone who had a slight lead. Moody/barty: he was a good teacher, he didn’t shy away from showing the students the unforgivables and giving them an idea of what it would he like to really have to defend yourself in a real situation, he didn’t coddle them.

@@coderbunny5653 no it was ron. just looked it up on wikapedia “Due to Lockhart's overall poor performances, the class did not learn anything about true defence, and Ron claimed that he only learned not to set pixies loose, and would have dropped the course had he been allowed to.” i was referring to the students and what they learned. most of them pretty much ignored him or gazed adoringly. the boys just saw him as a blowhard and beneath paying any attention and the girls just well were like teenage boys watching baywatch. i dont disagree with dumbledores comment but harry didnt need to learn not to be greedy the dursleys took care of that. and the weasleys taught ron too even if he like most teenagers would occasionally forget momentarily. though i do agree that lockhart did display exactly what an egotistical and self absorbed creature looked like and how it is an ugly sight

You could say Harry Potter was the best "Defense Against the Dark Arts" teacher, but in a rouge, unofficial capacity. His class was a small army to fight the dark; it was even more like boot camp for war than a class. Most effective.

I wonder why Harry didn't become the DADA professor? He was a good teacher in the DA in book 5.

Potty wee Potter instead became an Auror (Ministry police officer)

Best DADA teacher was Harry Potter himself, in Umbridge's year he taught the subject quiet well. Remus Lupin Severus Snape Barty Jr. (although disguised as Alastar Moody) Gilderoy Lockhart Quirinus Quirrel Doloremous Umbricula (name mixed with Venomous Tentacula) Amycus Carrow

You know that you're a bad teacher when the guy who couldn't even handle pixies is higher on the list than you!🤣

Harry himself is definitely up there as well, while he wasn’t an official teacher, he in my opinion taught the most effective class.

Great consistency mate Keep up the great work!

1-Lupin: 100% with no explanation 2:Harry: Ik he wasn't technically a DADA Teacher but he was head of Dumbledore's army and taught the members DADA 3-Snape: The triple agent thing made him below harry 4-Mad-Eye Moody/ body crouch jr.: He wasn't the worst 5-Lockhart: i hate him 6-Quirrell: Voldy was living on him 7:Acumys 8-UMBRIDGE IS WORSE THAN VOLDY

To me personally I think lupin was the best dark arts teacher. He taught the kids the most and he really cared about the position, school and students, especially harry and all of his friends. His and tonks deaths were very upsetting for me. Great job as always never miss a video.🔥🔥

The instability of the Defense Against The Dark Arts position might have weakened generations of wizards to effectively combat Voldemort.

We can place Lupin at the top, as we really like his character, but Moody/Crouch taught Harry many skills that would aid him in his long fight against Voldemort. Like Carrow, Courch inadvertently contributed to the eventual downfall of his master.

My personal list: 7. Carrow 6. Umbridge 5. Lockhart 4. Snape 3 Quirrell 2. "Moody" 1. Lupin I could switch Snape and Quirrell around, but since Snape was so biased with the students and only seemed to award those in his own house, I would put him under Quirrell. Quirrell was a huge mess, but if I remember correctly, Harry still learned things from him.

I can never get away from this channel.

I really feel that you should have added Harry Potter to the list. He was a real teacher to dozens of students that showed real results in the Battle for the Department of Mysteries.

Snape was by far the most learned in the DarkArts on this list, but as a teacher, he was woefully ineffective, even in potions. His penchant for bullying and belittling his students is no way of teaching anything.

Also in potions we know he is EXTREMELY talented (as evidenced by half blood prince's potions book) yet he never teaches the kids any of the tricks he learnt that are better than the original textbook. He just writes the instructions on the board and mocks them when they make a mistake, which is definitely not effective teaching.

Professor lupin was my personal favorite. And he always said the wisest things " *eat, you'll feel better* "

Personally, i think that Barty should be in second place, he may have been a death eater, but when it comes to his teaching abilities, he was actually good at it, an overall, he was even better at comunicating with the students than Snape.

Amazing, Cornelius Fudge denied the reality of Voldemort's return and attempted to wish away the problem. Where have I seen that in our real world recently?

Thanks for the heart harry potter theory :D. I upload harry potter vids too (just saying😅)

Another reason why Lupin was the best DADA teach and best teacher in general, he wasn't let the students be in a more casual enviroment, refering to them by their first name and not their family name like with every student. It showed that not only was he there to teach. But he was there to be, for lack of a better term, a friend to the students

Excellent video, nd I totally agree with ur ranking💯❤️❤️

When I first layer eyes on this video and then on Umbridge, my head screamed “YES.”

Hey mate, thanks for all the great content. Question, do you do "what if"-videos? If so here's one: "What if Harry had remembered that he got a mirror from Sirius for christmas that he could use to contact him, which he had stored in his trunk all the frigging time while he thought Sirius was in danger?"

Remus would be the most effective professor for me. I love his way of teaching.

Hi, I had a video suggestion which you could consider, you could do a video on all the wood types for ones and their properties

Lupin is my favourite character (together with Sirius) and its good to hear stuff like this!

you should rank the students in harry's year by their DADA abilities!

Its the fact that a child (harry) was one of the best DADA teachers 😬💀

Dolores Umbridge 7. Amycus Carrow potions: 1. Horace Slughorn 2. Severus Snape care of magical creatures: 1. Rubeus Hagrid II

Same here I couldn't stop crying it is the same with Dobby, Snape, Fred and Mad-eye😭😿

I would say that Carrow was a better teacher than Umbridge, or even Lockhart for that matter, simply because he actually taught the students, albeit in a frightening and destructive way that led to much chaos and pain.

I would rank the teachers (as far as teaching in general, I know a couple of them were revealed to be villains later on, but I'm not gonna let that effect their ratings) 1. Remus Lupin 2."Alastor Moody" 3. Professor Quirrel 4. Severus Snape (he may be very experienced but he bullies his students) 5. Gilderoy Lockhart 6. Delores Umbridge (who's about 2 centimeters away from last place) 7. Amycus Carrow

I had forgotten all about Carrow. While I might quibble with your middle choice rankings, I certainly agree with placing Remus Lupin at the top of the list. Played to perfection by David Thewlis, Lupin might have arisen to the level of one of the best instructors at Hogwarts had circumstances been different.

I feel like the most useful teacher to Harry was fake mad eye moody because he taught Harry the 3 unforgivable curses which played a big role in the war and robing gringots(notice how I said useful and not best)

"turned over to the dark side" hol up-

I agree with the list, nice video like always👍 Have a good day everyone

Remus is my favorite harry potter character aside from Snape, they may have butted heads, but without them Harry would have been screwed

my theory as to why Barty Crouch Jr/ Moody’s class was actually good is that Barty was under the imperious curse and told to act just like moody, so basically he’d be a sleeper cell until the time came to command him to do otherwise.

-Lupin -Snape -Barty Crouch jnr (as Alastor Moody) -Quirrel -The Carrows -Lockhart -Umbridge

VIDEO IDEA: so we know magic is genetic and in your DNA. Is being magic binary (wizard or muggle, no in between) or is there a gradient? Like are there muggles walking around that just miss the cutoff to get into Hogwarts and can do small magic things? And wizards who are just magical enough to be included in the magic world? And does all this time into how powerful a wizard/witch is?
