What Yolanda did wrong was start her speech without thanking being selected as the winner.
The thank-you speech is a type of text in which two parts must be included, which are:
The gratitude: It is the initial part of the thank you speech, in this part a thank you is directed to the person or institution that gave you the merit or the award that you are receiving. For example, Yolanda should have thanked the school for selecting her as the best actress.
The message: This part of the speech should include a reflective message about the fact for which she/he is being decorated and her/his experience with this result. For example, in this case, Yolanda can emphasize the hard process that she had to go through to do well with the character that she corresponded to in the play or other reflective messages.
