I believe that in current practice and tradition an apostle is someone that preaches to a group of individuals that are not necessarily like him or herself, that is to say, they preach to individuals of different backgrounds, financial situations, cultural traditions, etc. while a pastor is more so someone that preaches to a group of people that's similar to themselves with respect to their locality, traditions, upbringing, and culture. I think also that you tend to see more pastors within the interior of a country or culture, while apostles are typically more involved with the external or international community. Now of course different individuals and denominations may prefer one title over the other but I think that this contrast in the audience serves as a distinction between the two titles.

These may be associate pastors in bigger local churches, and are assigned to these small churches, whereby they are under the supervision of a senior pastor, and gain experience in being a pastor in their own right.

Anyone who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ is a disciple of Jesus Christ. Apostles, however, had the specific role of establishing church communities, versus the evangelist who preaches. God has given some apostles, some prophets, evangelists, pastors, etc. So in a manner of speaking, the apostles were all disciples, but not all the disciples were apostles.
