Study this grammar rule:

Overview: "As" and "like" are used to make comparisons, but they have different functions in a sentence. "As" is often used to show the role or function of someone or something. Example: She works as a teacher. "Like" is used to show similarities between two things. Example: He runs like a cheetah. Exceptions or Things to Pay Attention To: In some cases, "as" is used to show a specific function or purpose, while "like" is more informal. For example, you can say, "He acts as a leader," but informally you might say, "He acts like a leader," which suggests he is not really a leader but behaves like one.
