lecturer
Academic who orates
A lecturer is someone who gives lectures—formal talks on a subject, typically in an academic setting.
In universities, lecturer often designates a specific teaching rank, usually below professor: She's a lecturer in the English department.
The term can also describe anyone who tends to deliver lengthy, instructive monologues, often with a hint of tedium implied.
