Teaching hadn't been nearly as difficult as he'd expected it to be. He'd let Remus and Marlene do most of the talking so that he didn't end up tripping over his words out of nerves. He'd circulated back through the crowd after the initial instructions were over, helping anyone that seemed to be struggling. The class was a varied tapestry of what the wizarding world had to offer, old and young, male and female. Nobody looked like they actually needed this sort of assistance, but Peter knew all to well what it felt like to be lacking in a certain area. Which was exactly why once their class had concluded, he had stuck around for the others.
He'd been getting better, slowly but surely, but that didn't mean that he should skip out on something that was likely to help him be even better. Reinforcing the bases. His father always said that that was the best way to go about anything before you tried to improve upon it, so that was exactly what he was doing. Offering Lily a thankful smile as she subtly adjusted the way that he was holding his wand before moving on, Peter knew that while this didn't seem like such a major accomplishment, it would pay off in the long run.
He could only hope that the rest of the Order understood that. This might not be capturing Death Eaters, but it would go farther to helping more of the wizarding world than anything else they would have been capable of at the moment.
