Ambra Alimeti, since Friday, has been the most popular 13-year-old in the country.
With her speech in parliament, the 9-year-old student from the "Abdyl Paralloi" school in Elbasan amazed Albanian politicians. And in the end, unanimously, with the raising of the green card, Ambra was elected among the best as the Vice President of the Student Parliament.
Journalist: Who made the speech?
"In fact, the speech was completely my idea, it was written by myself. But of course I asked for the teachers' support for an edit and together we replaced some words," said Ambra.
Journalist: How did you feel when you gave a speech to politicians in the Albanian Parliament?
"I saw that the reactions were somewhat surprised and funny, but inside I felt like I wasn't doing the best thing. I didn't realize that it was something beautiful when you saw it from the outside ," she said.
Journalist: What are your results in school?
"It's not up to me to talk about them, I believe that the teachers should have their say here, because if I say that I have good results, it seems like I'm praising myself, and I don't like that at all," said the 13-year-old.
Ambra does not study in the most modern school in the city, she stays away from the phone and close to books. But with every journey of Ambra, behind her stands the tutor Klevis Balliu, who tries to bring out the best in each student. With the help of the teacher, Ambra will publish her 2 new books.
Journalist: Professor, when did you realize Ambra's potential?
"I heard him recite once and saw Ambra's diction, it was very beautiful. Then we both worked together, but I didn't know he had a pen, so he wrote. In the sixth grade, my teacher told me I wrote something. I read it and told Ambra we'll make a book out of it."
"I want the school to participate in this and so I organized a performance at the Skampa Theater and with the money we received from ticket sales we published the book. But now we have the next edition, the one with poetry. Before I published the first book, my father told me that there was no poem about him in the book, and the next day I was surprised when Ambra had written a very beautiful poem about her father," said the teacher in charge.
"I will write two new books, one with poetry and one with a novel," Ambra said.
Behind Ambra's success are her two hardworking parents, who, despite many sacrifices, have managed to ensure that their daughter is the child everyone loves.
"I am the proudest mother in the world. When I saw my daughter in parliament, I was excited because she was among the best," the mother said.
