Agree with Olivia. They're looking for an answer like "I have beginner English skills; I've been learning for a few months" or "My English skills are very advanced. I'm a fluent English speaker, I can speak business English, I've lived in the US, I've been studying for 10 years" that kind of thing.

Hi Youngmi! In this sentence, "describe" would mean something more like "explain".
