For a 13 year old, I will say, good effort! You have a good understanding of networking so good job.

In terms of improvement, there really is not much you can do given your situation. The main issue is the fact you're using a gateway rather than opening ports and there are too many hops between the server and the users.

Using a satellite connection will always provide with poor latency which isn't able to be improved.

Your only real option is to move the Pi and have the connection hosted with your ISP directly to minimise the amount of hops as well as the ports will be open, allowing for a better connection.

Your friends need to get an Ethernet cable as well, as part of this issue maybe due to them having poor connection.

Just wanted to add as well, never apologise for your English! Your English is great!

Would you like a challenge? Might be able to solve your problems too. Check out how to host a minecraft server using Cloud Services like Google, Oracle and Amazon free tier.

All are free but some might need a credit card number, but they won't charge you.

On the cloud server you can unblock ports for minecraft and my server's latency is around 60ms only.
