Many of the students in Twycross's [[1997]] Apparition class did not like him and called him names, inspired by the "Three D's of Apparition" that he tried to teach them. The nicest of these were "dog-breath" and "dung-head". Perhaps because of this, Twycross seemed very fond of his few good students, such as [[Hermione Granger]]. |

- "Oh, she was perfect, obviously. Perfect deliberation, divination, and desperation or whatever the hell it is — we all went for a quick drink in the Three Broomsticks after and you should’ve heard Twycross going on about her — I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t pop the question soon —"
- — Ron Weasley on Hermione Granger’s Apparating abilities[src]
Wilkie Twycross is an employee of the Ministry of Magic who teaches Apparition at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to students who are age seventeen or approaching age seventeen and wish to obtain a licence to Apparate. He is described as "oddly colorless, with transparent eyelashes, wispy hair, and an insubstantial air, as though a single gust of wind might blow him away". Harry Potter, upon meeting him, wondered whether this was because of the large amount of Apparating and Disapparating he did.
