Calimora:

I do wonder how likely that is. One of the things that always 
bothered me was how useful Occlumency is and how few people seem to 
know it. 

In OotP Dumbledore gives the distinct impression that Snape is the 
only person avalible who is proficient in the technique, but that 
doesn't make a whole lot of sence. If Voldemort could pick stuff out 
of peoples mind's just by looking them in the eye then a Traitor in 
the Order wouldn't have been such a big deal. Also, can you imagine 
a Slytherin who came across the technique and its corrilary to not 
study it?

As to an Occulmency instructor not having a lot of baggage with 
Harry - Strike Dumbledore and probably McGonnagal.
