It's unclear if Hogwarts has a Bardic Arts class.

Probably DATDA or maybe Divination under the fanon hypothesis that whats her face is just really really bad at it 99% of the time and that its possible to glean some good information from it with the right approach and mindset.

I doubt it would matter since Professor Binns apparently has tenure until the end of time, but I would totally teach History of Magic.

Cultural Anthropology. We could discuss the cultural appropriation humans practiced with goblins, and the exploitation humans partook of with house elves.

I like how in the Nasuverse (Fate/Stay Night, Fate/Zero, Tsukihime, etc) Wizards actually regularly learn martial arts just because of some of those weaknesses if someone manages to get too close.

Psychology of Death: How does death really feel like. Class includes: Dead People Paintings Interview, Ghost Interviews (as well as their death experiences trapped in a Pensieve), Priori Incantatem (right?) Dead People Interview, Resurrection Stone and How to Use It. Last class: Basics of Good Wizarding PR: Jesus Christ of Nazaret and How To Turn a Major Wizarding Secrecy Violation into a Muggle-Controlling Phenomenon.

How the understanding and use of magic has changed over the ages. Slightly different from history in that it has more of a theoretical side. I guess it's the advanced version of what Professor Binns teaches "until the end of time".

You need to watch Community, Lyr.
Maybe this this will clear things up.

I think this is an absolutely necessary class. It's amazing how many timely do-gooders don't grasp that waiting until the last minute allows one to explode with a level of power of which they hadn't previously imagined themselves capable. Similar to Tantra.
ETA: Sorry KoM. I meant "good-dooders."

Since, just about everything they do can and routinely does lead to death, disfigurement, pain, and mental anguish--a class teaching emergency magical first-aid, how not to inhale caustic fumes in potions class, how to fall safely--even from a speeding death trap called a broom, etc. would be a necessity.

Tasteful Attire--since no one in the wizarding world seems to have a clue. And maybe a special remedial personal grooming class for Snape.

And don't forget Hagrid's ridiculous flying motorcycle, with and without rocket assist.
Voldemort did not need a broom to fly. Some of the Deatheaters like Belatrix were able to fly without brooms, as well. That sounds like the best way to go.
One advantage of the flying Anglia, though, is that it would keep the wind out of your face, so you could go faster.

I think I would prefer to teach at an affiliated university, rather than effectively teaching middle or high school level classes at Hogwarts itself. I would teach a subset of these classes:
AMS101: Introduction to Applied Magical Science Mathematical limits of and exceptions to Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration.
AMS201: Applied Magical Science Ineteraction between GLET and thermodynamics: funadamentals of heat, momentum, and mass transfer effected through magical means.
AMS211: Automation of Magical Systems Laplace transforms and process control algorithms adapted for magical systems. Effects of time-altering magic on feedback and feedforward controllers.
AMS221: Statistics for Wizards and Witches Statistical design and analysis of magical experiments. Statistical inference, hypothesis testing, and significance.
AMS331: Industrial Magic Applications in manufacturing, statistical quality control in magical mass production.
AMS301: Magical Thermodynamics Applications of GLET-PR and GLET-Gibbs equations to chemical separation and reaction systems.

Wow twinky...that is possibly the most nerdy thing I've ever read, and I once read a Buffy novel.
