Thank-you Professor...

My undergraduate calculus students here call me 'Professor', even though I am clearly (I hope) far too young to be anything of the sort. Maybe they're just more polite over here.

One thing never changes though: on neither side of the Atlantic can undergraduates pronounce or spell my surname correctly.

Lots of American postdoctoral positions are officially assistant professorships. (Unlike mine, which is a mere instructorship and so sounds rubbish. Hrumph.) So you're not at all too young to be a professor.
