I am looking for a English word or phrase which suits someone who love to propagate education among people by establishing educational institutions or writing books and so on.
In order to translate a text from my mother tongue to English I need such a word but I can not find it so far as I have knowledge about English.I have tried to use some words(for example devoted) for this purpose but they seem inappropriate to me.

What do you mean by education? General knowledge, or teaching a specific subject? Could you describe the person and what exactly they love teaching. A sample sentence would be especially helpful, I'm not keen on the above suggestions but they might fit if the context is clarified.

You need to modify the title,(i.e. delete "preach") otherwise users are just going to suggest the more obvious solutions: preacher, rabbi, guru, sage, spiritual leader, mentor...

I'm not entirely sure a single word would do. 'Enthusiast' certainly fits, but you might want to qualify it further with the subject that enthuses them, such as 'educational/education enthusiast'.

I know it seems too simple, but there it is.
