Would his mind function better when he’s near Harry?

I don’t think we’ve seen any evidence of that; in fact, we have seen the opposite, since Harry (and possibly Quirrel as well) experiences an overwhelming sense of doom whenever they’re in close proximity,

  Definitely Quirrel as well:
  
  Harry walked forward a step, then another step, until a sense of unease began to pervade him, a disquiet in his nerves.
  
  He said nothing, lifted no hand; the pervading sense of unease would say it for him.
  
  From behind the closed door of the office came a whisper, carrying through the door as though no door were present.
