The return is placed three days after the relevant starting event. 以后 can independently refer to the future. 之后 needs a reference point, but that point can be supplied by the surrounding discourse rather than repeated immediately before it.
Build the form
- The pattern in this lesson is in the future以后 vs after之后 (after / afterwards). Locate it in the original interlinear examples below.
- Keep the words in their demonstrated positions; the pattern must fit the intended situation as well as the sentence form.
in the future以后I我want想be当teacher老师。

Read the full reference: HSK 5 grammar — Comparing similar time words.
You describe returning three days after a departure. Close the examples. Say a Mandarin response, then write it in Chinese. Explain briefly in English what the lesson’s pattern adds. Compare with the model, then change one detail and try again.
This is supported productive practice. Compare meaning and structure; your answer need not copy the model. A partner or teacher must hear the spoken response to comment on pronunciation.
