Teaching English to Professional Athletes

Post by kizaguirremerlos » Sat Oct 15, 2011 11:36 pm

Hello, I am doing some independent research on getting into and teaching English to professional athletes. There isn't much literature available on this topic, though. (If you're aware of any literature on the topic I'd love to hear about it. I have access to my university's catalog and appreciate links).

Have any of you had any experience with this part of the field or know someone who has? Please feel free to share as much as you'd like on the topic/leads. Thanks, everyone!

I've seen ads for English teachers for baseball players but unfortunately don't remember where. You could poke around though.
