Dear teachers,

I have one question today.

A dropkick is defined as an attack where the wrestler jumps up and kicks the opponent with the soles of both feet, this* sees* the wrestler twist as they jump so that when the feet connect with the opponent one foot is raised higher than the other (depending on which way they twist) and the wrestler falls back to the mat on their side, or front.

Sorry I don't quite understand what *see* here means. And I can't really imagine what a drop kick look like in my head.

Thanks

It means that if you were watching a wrestler do a drop kick, you would see what the author describes.
Although the description is not very clear, and I am by no means a wrestling fan, I think it works so that the attacking wrestler brings the other one to the ground and as they both hit the ground the attacking wrestler's raised leg comes down on the other guy's throat, or face,
with considerable force.
