In case your lecturer insists on being provided with a Microsoft Word document, just export your document to Word by choosing File › Save as and then selecting File type › Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP.

If on the other hand you have just imported a Word document full of inconsistent formatting, mark the whole thing with Ctrl + a, turn the whole text into Text body with Ctrl + 0, then make sure all old formatting disappears completely with Ctrl + m and finally format your text from scratch using styles. Note that instead of starting completely from scratch, you can delete or replace existing styles with others. For that just go to Edit › Find & Replace › More Options and tick Styles.
