How To Switch Back To Old Classic Editor in WordPress

I just recently noticed that WordPress was upgrade to a new version and it  brings a lot of changes including a new Gutenberg editor.

Some bloggers and writers don’t like it because they are not familiar with it while others think the block-based editor is way more complex than the classic editor.

Well! I’m not sure what are the purpose of that block format or how it is an improvement. I prefer to have all of my options along the top menu like the old editor, rather than having to search the side menu or scroll, and then click through the dropdown menu.  It is taking me longer to do things that used to be instant before. I admit! I’m not an html or program-savy person that is the main reason why I find it hard to use.
