The title Harry Potter: 25 Hogwarts Professors, Officially Ranked refers to a TheGamer article reported as published on January 23, 2019, but its full list and reasoning are not available to verify. HarryPotter.com has published its own editorial ranking, based on which classrooms its writers would most like to visit; that is a separate list, not confirmation of TheGamer’s order.
What “officially ranked” means here
HarryPotter.com is the franchise’s official site, but its ranking is an editorial preference list, not a canonical judgment about who is objectively the best teacher. Its introduction says the writers ranked professors by “which classrooms we’d most like to sneak into.” That approach makes classroom appeal part of the verdict, alongside qualities such as subject knowledge, fairness, clarity, and student safety.
The site’s list also has a defined scope: it excludes Defence Against the Dark Arts professors because they have a separate ranking. It generally considers teachers seen in action in the books and films, and includes Dumbledore based on Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. The top four are presented as equally ranked, rather than in a strict one-through-four order. Read HarryPotter.com’s ranking and its stated criteria.
Why the available evidence cannot reproduce TheGamer’s 25-place list
The search result for TheGamer’s article supplies its title and reports a publication date of January 23, 2019, but the article page could not be retrieved. That means its full roster, ordering, and reasoning cannot be checked. It would be misleading to present HarryPotter.com’s ranking—or a new list assembled from character descriptions—as TheGamer’s original 25-place order.
#1 Best Overall
- Figurine from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter collection
- Intricately detailed and hand-painted
- Crafted from high-quality stone resin
- Comes shipped in full-color giftable packaging
- 7. 5 inch height (19. 05 cm)
The distinction matters because a ranking changes with its rules. One list may weigh expertise heavily; another may prioritize kindness, lesson design, or the risks students face. HarryPotter.com states a preference for classrooms its writers would want to visit, while its treatment of Defence Against the Dark Arts teachers is outside the list’s scope. Its choices therefore cannot fill the gaps in a separate article.
Which professors and teaching roles are established
The official franchise guide identifies Hogwarts teachers across several subjects. The following roles give a reliable sense of the range, but do not imply a ranking:
Rank #2
- TRUE-TO-LIFE DESIGN - Crafted for collectors! From McGonagall’s emerald robes and commanding stance to her kitty cat Patronus, this realistic figurine set honors the wisdom and magic of one of Hogwarts’ most iconic professor
- ICONIC COLLECTIBLES FOR POTTERHEADS - Officially licensed and crafted with premium detail, these schleich Harry Potter figurines are perfect for display, collecting, & recreating unforgettable wizarding world scenes.
- A GIFT FULL OF WIZARDING WONDER - Straight from Hogwarts to your shelf, these detailed figures capture the spirit of Harry Potter and are a must-have for anyone who's ever dreamed of casting spells and taming Hippogriffs!
- IMAGINATION WITHOUT LIMITATION - Schleich toys come in all shapes and sizes to bring every story to life. We value sustainability which is why we have created diverse worlds of durable toys built-to-last that can be treasured for generations to come.
- Minerva McGonagall: Transfiguration
- Pomona Sprout: Herbology
- Filius Flitwick: Charms
- Severus Snape: Potions, and later Defence Against the Dark Arts
- Rubeus Hagrid: Care of Magical Creatures
- Cuthbert Binns: History of Magic
These examples are roles named in the franchise guide, not a verified reconstruction of all 25 names in TheGamer’s article. See HarryPotter.com’s Hogwarts guide.
How to judge a Hogwarts professor beyond subject skill
Knowing a subject and teaching it well are different things. HarryPotter.com’s own commentary illustrates the gap: it praises Snape’s Potions ability while criticizing his bullying and unfair treatment of students. A professor can be highly capable and still create an unjust or hostile classroom.

Rank #3
- Captures the magic of the Harry Potter And fantastic beasts films
- Crafted by skilled sculptors
- Developed in collaboration with Warner Bros.
- Perfect 1: 16 scale
- Recreates the most memorable characters
Safety is another distinct measure. The official ranking recognizes Hagrid’s enthusiasm for magical creatures but faults the danger of using hazardous creatures in lessons. A compelling subject or an enthusiastic teacher does not, by itself, make a lesson appropriate for students.
For an independent comparison, useful questions include:
Rank #4
- TRUE-TO-LIFE DESIGN - Crafted for collectors! From his flowing black robes to his deer Patronus, this realistic Snape figurine set captures the quiet heroism in spellbinding style.
- ICONIC COLLECTIBLES FOR POTTERHEADS - Officially licensed and crafted with premium detail, these schleich Harry Potter figurines are perfect for display, collecting, & recreating unforgettable wizarding world scenes.
- A GIFT FULL OF WIZARDING WONDER - Straight from Hogwarts to your shelf, these detailed figures capture the spirit of Harry Potter and are a must-have for anyone who's ever dreamed of casting spells and taming Hippogriffs!
- GET READY FOR MAGIC IN THE WIZARDING WORLD - From the bustling shops of Diagon Alley to the shadowy Forbidden Forest, every part of this world is packed with spells, friendship and discovering you're more than a Muggle.
- IMAGINATION WITHOUT LIMITATION - Schleich toys come in all shapes and sizes to bring every story to life. We value sustainability which is why we have created diverse worlds of durable toys built-to-last that can be treasured for generations to come.
- Expertise: Does the professor demonstrate strong command of the subject?
- Teaching: Are lessons clear, engaging, and suited to students’ abilities?
- Fairness: Are students treated consistently and respectfully?
- Safety: Are classroom risks managed responsibly?
- Classroom appeal: Would the lesson be interesting to attend, even if it is not the safest or most equitable?
These are interpretive dimensions, not a scored rubric published by HarryPotter.com. They help explain why readers can disagree about a “best professor” without either answer being an official fact.
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.So who are the best Hogwarts professors?
There is no verified universal answer, and the unavailable TheGamer article’s 25-place order should not be guessed. HarryPotter.com offers one clearly scoped editorial answer: its writers ranked professors by the classrooms they would most like to visit, with Defence Against the Dark Arts teachers handled separately. Readers looking for a dependable comparison should treat that as a stated editorial preference—not canon—and distinguish subject expertise from fairness, teaching quality, and student safety.
