Our first meeting---	Teacher Shu-ying Tsai is accepting our interview
A-fu mentioned Teacher Shu-ying Tsai, the leading person in training story-tellers, when we visited A-fu’s bookstore. At 1:30, December 2, we invited Teacher Shu-ying Tsai to our school and interviewed her. She was a charming and beautiful lady. When she told us she was already 44 years old and her child is the junior student in a university, we were greatly surprised. She said she worked as the story-teller for 11 years and was enjoying being with the children.
Unforgettable experience--
She told us about her unforgettable experience. Once she played musical instruments with the local children. Another time, a child even wants to give up being a baseball player to attend her story-telling activity. In a winter, she attended a book club, expecting there would be few children because it was very cold. But to her surprise, eight children came to enjoy her story.
Sharing experience--	Teacher Tsai’s blog
Teacher Tsai also shared her experience of establishing a story-teller organization. She told us the establishment of such organization required determination and persistence, and made full of the local resources and support. Finally, she pointed out a few issues we should be attentive: 1. free participation of the parents and the local people, 2. open the school library to the story-tellers and the local people, 3. win over the support from the school and the local people and encourage them to participate in the activities.
