Agha @ghasemkiani, Lutfa yekk nigah bindaz:

May I ask you a question sir? Instead of teaching pediatrics, why teaching Idioms?

I have not been active in clinical practice in the last 10 years. I mostly translate books into Persian, so I have been dealing with language-related issues on a daily basis for the last 25 years or so. My interests include languages and linguistics, programming, AI and machine learning, and medicine, in that order.

In perspective of my country, it is kinda rare incidence. Those who are becoming doctor, any how they are related with clinics /patients. Is that also rare in your place or common thing that doctors are engaging in other tasks/job other than being physician?

Actually, it's not so uncommon in Iran. Although physicians in Iran, in particular those with a specialty, have very high incomes, some even higher than the average income of their counterparts in the West. But for various reasons, some of them choose to pursue other jobs. According to official reports, of 80,000 general practitioners, 25,000 do not actively work as a physician. (Of course, some of them may have become residents or be preparing for the residency exam.) Anyway, the percentage is high, especially among GPs. Among specialists, it's lower.
