Combined Mathematics #1 [Friday 9-7, Period 4]
When the math students entered the classroom for the first time, they would find their teacher pacing a path in front of the chalkboard. The more observant among them might notice that his feet were not quite touching the floor. Those who were paying particular attention would notice that he also seemed to be vibrating ever so slightly.
“Good morning,” he said when the last student signed in and he stopped pacing. Even the nonobservant-and-falling-asleep should notice he had a bit of an accent. “I am Jean-Paul Beaubier—you may call me Mr. Beaubier, or Professor Beaubier if you prefer--and I will be teaching you math.” The ‘God help us all,’ went unvocalized. "First, we will all introduce ourselves so I know who I am dealing with, and then, you will have half an hour to complete placement tests so I know what I am dealing with. Let's get started. First, I would like each of you to tell me your name, what year you are in, and where you are from. Starting with...you," he said, pointing to someone at random.

Re: Placement Tests
The first packet was a breeze, giving Peter plenty of time to work on the second packet. He stumbled through a couple of the more complicated integrals just because he was fairly out of practice with math due to his time in Fandom, but all in all he was happy when he finished right before the half hour was over.
[OOC: Peter did very well but his rustiness was probably showing towards the end.]
