OOP - Harry as teacher

[bookraptor11]

No: HPFGUIDX 66818

Does anyone remember an interview where JKR said that after the 
series somebody would become a teacher at Hogwarts, but not anyone 
we'd suspect?  I took that to mean Hermione wouldn't, and still think 
so, as she's always been the most obviously teacherlike of the 
students.

Now I'm wondering if it might not be Harry after seeing his success 
filling in as DADA instructor in the secret lessons.  I know he's 
been thinking about being an Auror even before OOP. His interview 
with McGonigall, and the knowledge that Ministry has been 
deliberately trying to block his attempts at learning DADA in OOP 
only increase his determination to be an Auror.  If he goes in for 
further training after Hogwarts, I think he would excell and 
eventually become a great Auror.

However, what he has decided at 15 may not be what he decides at 17.  
He also shows excellent aptitude as a teacher.  When he's giving 
instructions he seems very natural and more importantly his students 
make good progress.  Harry seems very fulfilled, and not just because 
he's defying Umbridge (see p.397 U.S. edition).

It may be after defeating Voldemort, Harry realizes a deeper calling 
to instruct.  I also love thinking of a possible line from the last 
page of book seven: "Professor Snape, have you met our new DADA 
teacher, Professor Potter?"
