First the words I don't understand, I looked at them in the dictionary. Then my mom asked me the difficult ones.
Were you nervous?
I wasn't nervous because last year I went and knew how the experience was.
How did you feel when you spelled the word correctly and won?
I was so, so happy because I didn't expect it. But I was playing to win.
How do you feel about learning English?
I like it! I want to go to the United Kingdom or the United States to go to school or for practicing English.
How did your parents react when they found out you won?
My mom was crying and my dad was really excited.
