When I found out about the immigration project I was nervous because I could not find an immigrant that I could interview. I remembered my babysitter Manuela Chocoj was an immigrant and I could interview her. Making questions to ask her was hard because they needed to be questions that she could give a lot of details about. I got 11 questions to ask her. While making the questions I needed to think outside of the box. My friends and parents also helped make my questions even better than they were before. Overall interviewing Manuela was very interesting.

Preparing for the interview was hard but also fun. I needed to find questions to ask and I needed to find a day where I was free to interview her. I needed to remember that if she does not say much that I would need to ask her to tell more when the interview happens. While making the questions I did not have any resources. I got ideas from my friends and made most of them myself. While making the list of questions I considered removing questions that were not necessary and questions that were yes or no or only one answer questions.

The interview was not hard. It took 5 minutes and she answered the questions with a lot of detail. I had 14 questions to ask her and needed to write more as we were asking the questions because I did not have that much information to include in the video that we are going to make. While interviewing her I asked her to add a little more detail and sometimes she could not understand the question so I needed to repeat it to her. She did not get sad if I asked her questions about her old place. It did not give her bad memories.

In conclusion, the interview and preparing for the interview was very fun and some parts were hard. I am excited to start making the video.
