Response to “How are you?”: Same old [If you have been doing the same thing for a while]

I want to teach some basic classes. Like the outline. I don’t want to let children do many things in my class. I like to have lecture totally by myself. I like the feeling of describe something and tells tories and transform academic achievements to them.
– I would want to teach general classes. More of an outline instead of getting specific. I don’t want students doing many different activities in my class. I would just lecture to them. I like the feeling of describing something and telling stories and adapting academic research into something they could understand. 

My idea job is to working as a professor in a university. Being a professor means I can do research by my own hobbies instead of working whole day for teadious tasks. Meanwhile what I research could straightly impact the policies or innovative products .In some majors researches ——like history and philosophy—— can not transform into instant achievements,but they can be proved in the future, at least enlighten people’s thoughts. 
Another consideration of being a professor is free working time and lots of vocations, As their students,they have summer and winter vocations for three months, furthermore they don’t need to go to university everyday. Even for some famous professors , it’s super common for them to attend academic conferences all over the world though sometimes they just travel around everywhere.
But compared to be a professor of doing researches . I preferred to become a lecturer whose main duty is teaching. I can’t get used to writing papers all day and collect materials. While reading achievements other researchers made then transform it into words students can easily accepted is more interesting for me,

My ideal job is to working as a professor in a university. Being a professor would mean that I could do research relating  to my hobbies instead of working everyday on tedious tasks. Meanwhile what I would research could directly impact the policies or innovative products. Some major research fields ——like history and philosophy—— can not transform research into instant achievements, but they can change how people think of that field of study.

Another advantage of being a professor is free working time and lots of vacations. Like their students, they have a total of 3 months vacation in summer and winter, furthermore they don’t need to go to university everyday.
It is common for famous professors to attend international academic conferences, many use this as an opportunity to travel all over the world.
Rather than being a research professor, I would prefer to become a lecturer whose main duty is teaching. I can’t get used to writing papers and collecting materials all day. Reading achievements others researchers made and then transforming them into language which students can easily understand is more interesting to me.
