One thing that might help is to surf on over to the "Editing and Writing Topics" and post some sample sentences for revision. You'll get lots of advice and get the hang of it in no time!

And while you are easily understandable, since you mentioned grammar and word use, I thought I'd suggest a few revisions. I would substitute "improve" for "better" in the first sentence, and add an "s" to the word "skill" in the second sentence. I would also revise the next two sentences to read, "I wish my grammar skills were as good as yours. Would you mind sharing some tips for learning grammar and sentence structure with me?"

You can always PM me if you want more advice...
