Narrative:

It was my second solo and I was holding short of the active runway. Tower told me to hold short of the runway, but I misunderstood it and started taxiing into position and hold. I was immediately ordered to stop, by tower, and aircraft coming on final was ordered to go around. Tower then instructed me to taxi to the other side of the runway, then back to the other side and to the ramp. English is not my first language and I was a bit nervous because the traffic pattern had been very busy during the first 3 touch-and-goes with my instructor.
