Chun Sheng Chou

Chou was born in 1930 in a small town in Hupeh China. His thirst for knowledge drove him to the big city to study at an early age. After the Chinese Civil War, he came to Taiwan, where he met his wife. They were married for more than fifty years. Chou earned a master’s degree from the Sun Yat-sen Institute at the National Taiwan Normal University and a bachelor’s degree in Chinese Literature at Chinese Culture University. He taught Chinese and the Three Principles of the People at Taipei Municipal Da’an Vocational High School. He was very popular among his students and helped shape the lives of countless young people.

While at Da’an Vocational High School, he also served as the director of student discipline, earning great respect from his colleagues. He frequently helped his colleagues solve problems and offered kind and reasonable advice.

Chou liked to travel and hike. He visited widely within Taiwan, often taking his family on trips. He also explored the natural scenery in China, Southeast Asia, and the United States.
