Snape's proper teaching could change Harry in many ways. Firstly, Harry would have a better understanding of the history and lore of magic, as Snape is well - versed in such areas. Secondly, Harry's Occlumency skills would improve drastically. This would protect him from Voldemort's mental intrusions more effectively. Also, Harry would learn how to approach magic from a more academic and less instinctive perspective, which could open up new possibilities in his magical development.
Harry would become more confident. Snape's teaching methods, if proper, would likely be strict but effective. Harry would grow in his magical abilities and be more self - assured in using them. He'd no longer doubt his skills as much as he does in the original story.
If Snape taught Harry properly in fanfic, Harry would be a different wizard altogether. Snape could teach Harry the value of patience in magic. Harry is often quick to act, but with Snape's guidance, he'd learn to wait for the right moment. This newfound patience would not only help him in dueling but also in his decision - making processes. Moreover, Harry would be more attuned to the subtleties of magic, like how different ingredients interact in potions at a molecular level, which would enhance his potion - making skills.
Snape's personality would likely soften. He'd have to be more patient and understanding. Instead of just being the strict and often sarcastic Potions master, he'd become more nurturing. He'd still have his sharp edges, but around Harry, he'd show more kindness and care as he takes on the role of a guardian.
It would add a whole new dimension to the story. Harry would gain knowledge and skills that are outside the normal Hogwarts curriculum. This could make him more powerful and better equipped to face his enemies. For example, if the goblins teach him about hidden magical defenses, he could use them to protect himself and his friends.
Snape's teaching style would have a profound impact on Harry. Given that Snape is a master of his craft, he would not tolerate any sloppiness from Harry. Harry would have to be more meticulous and detail - oriented. This would be a change from his usual somewhat haphazard approach. Snape might also use his own experiences to teach Harry about the importance of self - control. Since Snape has dealt with his own inner demons, he could guide Harry in managing his temper and using his emotions to fuel his magic in a more positive way. Also, Snape's knowledge of the darker aspects of magic would give Harry a more comprehensive understanding of the magical world, which could be crucial in his future battles against dark forces.
Snape becomes more empathetic. He starts to see Harry not just as James Potter's son but as an individual with his own struggles. For instance, he might notice how Harry is affected by the loss of his parents more deeply than he thought.
The relationship would be drastically different. Harry, who has always seen Snape as a rather unlikable figure, would start to see him in a new light. He might come to respect Snape as a father figure. Draco, who has some connection to Snape through his family, would now have a more personal and perhaps more positive relationship with Snape. Snape himself would have to soften his usual harsh demeanor towards Harry. And between Harry and Draco, they would be forced to get along better as they are now under the same roof. They might start to understand each other's insecurities and backgrounds more.
Snape could change by becoming more of a father figure to Harry. This would mean he'd be more protective and less likely to lash out with his usual sarcasm. He'd have to be more patient and understanding as he guides Harry through his magical education and the challenges of the wizarding world. This would also likely lead to him being more accepted by the other students and teachers as they see a different side of him.
Snape would likely become more nurturing. Instead of just being the strict and often cold Potions master, he would have to show a softer side to take care of Harry. He might be more patient as he guides Harry through his magical education and daily life.
It would definitely shake things up. The Gryffindors and Slytherins have a long - standing rivalry. With Harry, a well - known Gryffindor, befriending Snape, a Slytherin, it could start to break down some of those barriers. Students might be more open to interacting with those from different houses.
The relationship would become more complex. Snape would have a certain level of control over Harry as his familiar. This would force Snape to be more responsible for Harry's well - being. Harry, in turn, would have to rely on Snape in a new way.
The relationship would become extremely strained. Harry would likely go from having some level of respect or at least tolerance for Snape to feeling intense hatred. He might avoid Snape at all costs and even start to plot revenge in his head.
