Instead of demanding we fix your constant stream of posts, why don't you go back and read some of the comments on your many recent posts, and see if you can spot some of the many errors in this post?

Here are some hints:
1) You need to study subject/verb agreement.
2) You need to study interrogative questions.
3) You need to study basic punctuation.
4) You need to study how to use articles.
5) You need to study basic propositions.

You may also want to read up on the use of 'please', and making requests.

I read my recent posts and wrote again on paper.
Before I just read and listen English without writing English. So, I write English very bad.
I will repair in following this post.

Your statements "fix it" and "repair it" are commands in English. They are not polite, and I will not respond to posts that use that language. You can soften those commands with the word "please".

You say you are used to speaking and reading English but not writing in English.
Are the above sentences the way you normally speak English?

You wrote 'Go around of house that is the garden with these large trees'.

Is that a literal (word for word) translation of the Vietnamese version of that sentence? Does it make sense in your native language?

The above is not a question so you should not use the question mark.

Go around of house that is the garden with these large trees

Go around the house and you will find a garden with some large trees.

This house was painted red, there are so many windows. How many the window on this house, It might it has six windows,though. I think it has three floors. There is one main window.

The house is painted red and has many windows. There are about six windows with one main window. There are three floors

I think 'should not have used' should have been used above, because the OP has already used the question mark, but I am not a teacher.

I would consider the first one correct if 'the' is added before 'table', but I am not a teacher.
