Experience Sharing
The first two groups of teachers to help us, a group of two people, one recording, a person visit, I was responsible for recording; during this visit, I learned the importance of teamwork, but also learn to access should have the courtesy; like To access the sound is loud, it is necessary to express clearly the title, so people can be accessed very clear that what we are asking. Do not allow visitors access to the process is the feeling of being offended, so do not ask questions too personal thing. Recording pen near the mouth should be recorded when the visitor can clearly record the interviewees answer it.
Access repair clothes boss in the process, I know the technique to repair clothes, clothes lengthened or repair short, it can be used to tailor the machine or hand-sewn to modify. Also teach us how to sew on a button, pay attention to the size of the buttons, whether I can wear into the buckle holes. If you want handmade way be careful not to tie the hand, the line is also used to keep sewing clothes similar colors.
