You get a chance to see what your high school teachers were trying to do. You see how important it is and you learn so much you never thought of before. I think for a lot of people in high school, Physical Education is not a class. It is a time where they don't have to think. But a teacher's goal is to make students realize how important physical education really is.
Students say their relationships with their professors are good and that makes it easier to learn.
They also say they like the relaxed atmosphere of the department. Though there are different areas of study, all majors have certain things in common. If I can help someone get into an exercise program and help them lose some weight or whatever, make them feel better about themselves, I get a lot of satisfaction. That is really good because if you are going to be teaching a game, you have to know more than just how to play it. So, coordinating intramurals teaches you the mechanics and the rules so much more than if you were to just walk in and play the game.
