Professor Lupin's character is becoming more defined here. Understanding that students require respect, he shows that to them. Despite Snape's aspersions against Neville Longbottom, Lupin has him lead off against the Boggart, and coaches him to where he has the confidence to perform the spell twice. This proves to be an important milestone in Neville Longbottom's development. To date, Neville has always felt that he was in the wrong place. He, onceeven remarkedremarking that his family believed he was, "almost a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Squib|squib]]," in ''[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Chamber of Secrets|Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets]]'',. and he himselfHe fears he has no real magical abilities. Indeed, it does appear that he has little, if any, skill in Potions, and he is apparently just as lost in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Divination|Divination]] as Harry and Ron. Lupin, by having him lead off the class against the Boggart and later having him finish the lesson, boosts his confidence.

While this could be seen as excessive familiarity, particularly in schools run on the English public-school model, in this context, it seems to change Lupin from a professor into a teacher.
The Boggart represents how everyone's fears are different. Curiously, it is not Voldemort that Harry fears most, but Dementors. It may be that Harry fears Dementors more because he has difficulty comprehending what the eerie creatures are and does not know how to react to them. Voldemort, although an evil and powerful enemy, is a human being (albeit a still disembodied one), and Harry can better understand his more predictable human traits. Dementors, in contrast, are dark, hideous creatures that are not entirely understood by wizards, are unpredictable, and apparently are difficult to keep under control; they also seem to show a particular interest in Harry, whose encounter with them left a deep emotional wound.

Note that Peeves is especially disrespectful towards Lupin when they meet in the hall. Peeves may know something about Lupin's earlier school years, and the song he sings ("Loony, loopy Lupin") may refer to Lupin's "furry little problem." Lupin's Boggart, a silvery orb, may provide a clue as to just what this problem is. However, Lupin demonstrates that he is able to hold his own against Peeves and, in the process, reinforces his students' admiration.
 
We are also receiveoffered a few more insights into Snape's character, but we learn little thatnew is newlearned; he is wholly biased towardsin favor of his own house, Slytherin, and seems to purposely belittle Gryffindors, especially Neville. This bias seems to be an extension of anyone or anything associated with Harry, but Snape's animosity may go further than that.
