Apparition is definitely one of the most difficult and dangerous spells out there.
First, to be a student at Hogwarts, one must be at least seventeen years old and in the sixth year to be eligible to apply for this course.
Secondly, during the learning and practice of spells, there is a teacher accompanying you throughout the process, because if you use it incorrectly, it can cause the spell to Splinching, and it is very common for it to be missing an arm or a leg.
At this point, the teacher needs to use healing True Magic to reconnect the Splinching parts.
Many young wizards suffer from psychological trauma caused by the Splinching, eventually leading them to be afraid to use the Apparition again.
Finally, after completing the course, students must pass an exam. Only young wizards who can perfectly use the Apparition can obtain Apparition License, which is equivalent to a driver's license in the human world.
If a wizard uses Apparition without a license, he may escape punishment if he is not caught, but if he is caught, he will face a hefty fine.
This was done partly for the safety of the young wizards themselves, and partly to reduce the burden on the wizards in the Ministry of Magic's Accidental Magic Reversal Squad.
Before the fines were imposed, the group received dozens of reports every day of people being Splinching Apparition or discovered by Muggle due to unauthorized Apparition.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, it would not be easy for George to learn Apparition in the first grade.
Even though he had already found the Apparition Spell and related learning materials in the Restricted Section.
Unlike other True Magic, you won't have much of a safety problem if you don't learn it on your own. But if you don't learn this well, you could die.
Given his physical condition, he wouldn't survive even if his head and body Splinching.
He couldn't very well ask Snape for help with this True Magic, because Snape wouldn't violate school rules to teach him in advance, as it was different from the spells Snape taught him to create.
As for Voldemort in the Diary, on the one hand, the Voldemort in the Diary is a fifth-year Voldemort who hasn't started learning the Apparition yet; on the other hand, even if Voldemort knew it, it wouldn't be of any use.
What he needs is someone to help heal and restore him when he splits into Splinching while practicing the Apparition; the Diary can't do that.
He also considered kidnapping a dark wizard and using the Imperius Curse to control him and teach him Apparition, but he felt that was also very risky.
People controlled by the Imperius Curse are not normal to begin with, so it's really unreliable to have them as teachers. If they are discovered, they'll end up in Azkaban.
So after thinking it over, he felt there was only one way to go, one that was safe and had no future troubles.
That means spending money to enroll in Magic Cram Class.
In the Muggle world, Magic Cram Class is essentially an after-school tutoring program, co-founded by a group of wizards who are recognized as having decent abilities.
The main purpose is to provide tutoring for young wizards who are not doing well in school, and to further improve the magical abilities of adult wizards who have graduated but are unable to find good jobs due to insufficient True Magic skills.
Of course, in addition to that, they would also trick Squib from wizarding families into learning True Magic.
Argus Filch, the school's Gatekeeper, had always wanted to see if he could learn True Magic through Magic Cram Class.
He believed that as long as he spent enough money, the teachers in those Magic Cram Class wouldn't mind breaking the law a little to teach him Apparition ahead of time.
After all, this is not a big deal. Even if it is discovered, it will only result in a fine, which is not on the same level as the crime of using the Three Unforgivable Curses.
Moreover, the Ministry of Magic generally doesn't care about these things, especially now that the Ministry of Magic is in such a mess, it cares even less about these matters.
George felt that since money could solve the problem, there was no need to take unnecessary risks.
Having figured all this out, he resumed his normal study of True Magic. Recently, he has been researching the Invisibility Spell, a high-level spell that can make the body Invisibility.
After seeing Aria successfully ambush Makarov using Invisibility, he felt that Invisibility True Magic seemed very useful in battle.
The following morning, George first visited the rod maker Ollivander with a gift.
Ollivander, the old wizard, has a wide network of connections in the wizarding world. Even though he no longer needs to learn wand making, he will certainly still maintain these connections.
That way, if anything happens in the future, we can ask Ollivander for help.
Ollivander was delighted by George's arrival. It was rare to have such a talented apprentice, and more importantly George brought some rare materials that could be used to make wands.
After leaving Ollivander, George found an advertisement for Magic Cram Class on a wall by the street and followed the address to the shop with the name "Magic Cram Class".
This was a tiny shop with a faded storefront, probably the smallest shop he had ever seen in Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley, sandwiched between a secondhand crucible shop and an ice cream shop.
Pushing open the door and stepping inside, he found that the space was smaller than he had imagined, barely enough to fit a table and two chairs, with not much room left.
Inside the shop, a fair-skinned witch with short hair, wearing a faded jacket, and looking to be around thirty years old, was fast asleep, slumped over the table, unaware that George had entered.
"I'm starting to have doubts about my decision."
George's lips twitched, and he stepped forward and tapped on the table.
"Madam, is this Magic Cram Class?"
The witch opened her eyes somewhat groggily, and when she saw George, she immediately stood up abruptly.
"Of course, are you here to register?"
Our Magic Cram Class is inexpensive and effective, guaranteeing a rapid improvement in grades after the start of the school year, so you'll never be looked down upon by your classmates again.
"Okay, stop!"
George raised his hand to interrupt the witch's introduction, and then asked:
"Just one question: Can you teach Apparition?"
"Apparition is no problem, it's just that you seem to be quite old."
The woman paused for a moment, then looked George up and down, her tone becoming hesitant.
George calmly replied:
"If I meet the age requirement, I can study at school. Why would I need to come to you?"
"Oh, but we only offer Apparition training to adult wizards who haven't mastered it yet, so they can retake the Apparition test."
This service is not offered to wizards under the age of seventeen. You should know that if you get caught by the Ministry of Magic, you'll have to pay a hefty fine!
The witch looked troubled.
"Why don't you try other spells? We can provide guidance on spells for your school from first to seventh grade, and we can even help you with your school's holiday homework."
