"will" isn't used in a time clause. He will come tomorrow. Before he comes, I will prepare the room for him.

When you will be a teacher...here the meaning should be, When will you be a teacher..when you pass your exams, you will be able to teach.
When you are a teacher... you are able to teach, you are ready, willing and able to do the job that you have been trained to do.
