Thank you for your contribution. However please note that the working language of this community is English. It is OK to post in Russian occasionally but then you are expected to provide a translation. Thank you for your cooperation.

Hey Cere7a, get real. You need to read the community rules or you will enter the kingdom of pain and torture!

What you wrote in Russian (actually how you wrote that) seems awkward to me:

1. У меня есть небольшие знания английского.
Why isn't it just Я немного знаю английский or something equally simple? It looks to me as if this sentence was word for word translated from some language (English?) to Russian.

2. Хочу немного подучиться английскому
I'm not 100% certain here, but I dislike the use of the verb here. I think it should've been подучить английский (without reflection). The more I think that you're going to be learning English not on your own but with somebody's help (and very likely with a lot of help), the less chances are for the use of the reflection as you're not going to teach yourself on your own.

3. ...помочь тебе ... если напишите мне...
Since this isn't a conversation and you're not negotiating whether you're using ты or вы with another, you need to chose one form of politeness and stick with it.

So, when helping out with Russian, pay attention to what you're going to say or write before you do and after you do. :) It would be bad to teach wrong stuff.

"если напишите" is also wrong. It should be "если напишете" (subjunctive) or напишИте (inperative). And this is a much more serious error than all you have listed (those are only stylistic flaws, if at all, and this is a serious mistake).

Глагол "писать" (даже с каким угодно ударением) - первого типа спряжения, друкк.
