    Very good, Juliana!  You speak clearly and very fluently.  There are a few words you could pronounce better:

    - candy -- remember to pronounce the "dy" as the second syllable.

    - smiling -- pronounce the first "i" like "ai" (the long "i" vowel sound in English).

    - are -- pronounce it just like the letter "R."

    Manoel provides an excellent audio, which should help. 

    Keep practicing, you're doing very well!
