Well, the HP saga DOES describe lessons, homework, school books and
tests more than any other book I can offhand think of (probably
hundreds of pages throughout the series) and it DOES have an extensive
gallery of teachers, each with a completely different teaching style,
and Rowling WAS a teacher herself and she IS very good at describing
teacher-student dynamics and her hero DOES get to be both a student
and a teacher himself. But apart from that <g> you might be quite
right and teaching is not particularly important in the HP saga.
