Interaction(1) and some wrong sentences

I've read all of your questions and advices plus your first impressions of me. I want say THANK you to all of you.

Up to now, no scolds appear. But I myself know there are problems with me and am trying to figure out and seek for solutions. Do be patient with me.

Things I want to know, don't ask me for too much. There are things beyond me. My being of help depends on you, your work and your advices. If you ask me like this, 'I have a problem, I do it in such a way ... but it seems to have no much effects, and I want to change it. My plan is that ... and I want you to give me some advices.", that's much better. Remember, we can solve problems by defining them, the more details we know, the more efficient our plans will be. Don't tell me that your listening is not good and you need a better plan. It's not a good question because it won't bring you a better solution.

I found some sentences which need corrections.

1.Not only teaching us how to write and read, but also listen and speak.

Here, you'd better say as 'but also how to listen and speak' because you have used 'how to write and read'. 

2.what make a good teacher.

I'd rather write 'what makes a good teacher' because what might be regarded as a singular word.

3.A good teacher should make the students be happy  study.

Your former 'be happy in studying' is just ok.

4.Have some activities for an amusement.

'for amusement' is just ok here.

5.I'm sorry there're maybe some mistakes.

I'm sorry there may be some mistakes.

6.Since you haven't give us real classes...

I'd rather write 'formal classes'.

7.If so, you should make your students interest your class.

I'd rather say 'you would make your students interested with your class' or 'you would interest your students with your class'. 'Would' is more polite than 'should', I guess you might want to know, and as for 'interest', it may be used both as a verb or a noun, but here your use might be a little wrong. So I changed it into an adjective.

8.It's difficult to rote the new words for me. I wish you can provid a easy way.

It seems it's true for you, :) first, write, not rote, you omissed a 'w' and forgot that you need an infinitive here. Secondly, provide, not provid for they have different pronunciations; thirdly, 'an' easier way.

9. ...to make students likely to learn.
I'd rather write to make students like to learn or like learning. 'Likely' means probably or possible.

10. A good English teacher should have patient to inspire students who not good at English, give him or her confiendence.

I'd rather say that 'should have patience' for 'patient' is an adjective; I say 'students who are not good at' because 'good' is also an adjective. And your 'confiendence' might be 'confidence'.

to Students: Things you might want to know of me,

1. I’m a teacher and will take my job seriously. But it also means I will only do my own job and am unwilling to do yours.
2. I’m kind and ready to respect others. I’m easy to get whenever you need me.
3. I’m stubborn and inflexible, which means I’d like stick to rules. So, try not to threaten me for a higher score by saying that you won’t choose me as your English teacher in the next term. It just won’t work.
4. I won’t explain everything in class, but I like to help solving problems. So, don’t expect me of treating every question you think important in the class, you can ask for my help in other times, or you can just seek other solutions.
5. I’m simple-minded, so please be frank with me.
6. I’m a Chinese English teacher, whenever you find my pronunciation or other performance is different from native speakers, just kindly point out and follow the native speakers.
7. I like making friends. But to make friends, I need responses. Your response might encourage or discourage me, which will definitely affect my later behaviour.
8. I like to be your companion in your learning journey. But it also depends on you. You must open your heart to let me know you. The more I know you, the better we can cooperate.
9. I like to adjust and re-adjust my teaching way, you can help me by keeping advising me.
