Eddie, great point there, he will not have a chance if he doesn't learn them.  Really, the best he was doing with non-verbals, was reading the HBP book.  Look at what he was learning, by reading on his own, and Snape wrote it all. I think if Snape & he were better aquainted (yeah right), it would really benefit him.  Snape seems like a decent teacher, and could be a better one if he wasn't an ars, and I would like to think that given different ending circumstances, he could have helped Harry more.  He is extrememly smart and if there wasnt all the hate & tension between the two of them, he could have taught Harry so much to help him in the downfall of LV.   But that whole paragraph contained all if''s, buts & fairytale  endings that don't exist.   
So lets hope McGonagal really gets Harry learning in 7.  I think Hermione will help him a lot too.
