Polished transcript:

Male Female

I'm going to talk about one of my professors from university, when I was studying for my master's degree. He's an incredible person, and I really love him. As a matter of fact, I adore him. I had taken a course named 'Operating Systems' before I took a seminar with this professor of mine, and actually, the more I knew him, the more I was attracted to his personality. He's in his late seventies, but he has a lighthearted and kind, almost lucky, aura about him. He was known for his interactive lectures when he was teaching, and he always tried to truly elucidate the course materials when he was teaching them. Even though he was older, he wasn't oblivious to his surroundings. He was fit and in good shape, and I was lucky to know him. If I had the chance to go back in time, I would have probably taken more courses with him. He means a lot to me. He's a role model for me.
