Welcome, Julie! JKR said Harry wouldn't become a teacher *at 
Hogwarts* which I find intriguing, since I think he will have to 
sacrifice his powers to defeat Voldemort. And this will be a tragic 
loss for the readers, who naturally want more Harry stories, but 
not for Harry, who will understand that it is friendship and bravery 
that make life worthwhile, not magic. So I think he will be a 
teacher in the Muggle world, have the ordinary life he's always 
wanted, and marry Ginny, of course, who may have to go into 
hiding too if she still harbors some of Voldemort inside her.

Of course when the first of their children turns eleven...
