    The best way for you to get first hand experience with the job would be to shadow
    a PE teacher. Go to another school where the students won't know you and follow
    the teacher around for the day. Take notes and at the end of the day ask lots of
    questions. If it is still some thing you want to do then talk with your local ESD they
    will be able to point you in the direction you need to go. Good Luck.
