If I call myself an instructor or professor, that is not correct since we have both professors and instructors and I AM NEITHER. My position title has Teaching in it, so calling myself a teacher is most correct.
I don't care what people might prefer to be called. This is a stupid argument, one that only somebody with an inflated sense of intellect and a lot of spare time would engage in. Oh that's right--you must be a full professor then
You should care what people prefer to be called - if everyone prefers one title but you use another then you are putting students in a position where faculty think they are morons because they call them by the wrong title. Don't forget you are TEACHING them more than just the course topic.
PM me your field and where you'll be working next fall - I'm not doubting you -- just curious.
