And there's always the respect for another prof's area of expertise... Lupin's the 
DADA teacher, anyone else offering to teach a DADA spell would be very rude 
(remember Lockhart with Sprout and Snape), probably even if it was Flitwick.

Considering how important Quidditch and her pupils are to McGonagall, I'd bet she 
asked Lupin if he taught Harry the spell, or would do it if Harry asked him.
