Reviews of the reporter
Writer: Yun-Ruei Chang, Quick Silver
I didn't know what to do as a reporter. I kept making mistakes during the interview. Ms. Liu told us in patience about how to interview, how to prepare a drift, and how to make the interview smoothly. I still thinks it is very difficult to be a good reporter. But we don't quit, we will work harder. Let our interview smoothly and speak clearly.
