Teaching pros are usually distinguished from playing pros, although some professionals teach and play for money. Not to be confused with "playing pro", "trainer", "coach", "tennis director", or "hitting/sparring partner". "Teaching pros" are usually distinguished from "playing pros", although some professionals teach and play for money. Note also that the longer terms "professional" and "teaching professional" are now less frequently heard today because they can have many meanings in sporting world. Furthermore, semantically speaking, one can be a "tennis instructor" without necessarily being a "tennis pro(fessional)". See "tennis instructor". 1, record 1, English, - teaching
