Hello Mouhannad,

I'm not a moderator, but I would like to tell you what I think anyway.
I am sure that this forum and the tests will help you to improve your English, Any practice, especially reading, is bound to be a help.
Everyone has to start somewhere, and the elementary level will give you a sound base on which to build - you can move on when you are ready.

Your post looks quite good, There are just a few small mistakes. This is how I would write it:

No, the word help is correct.

When it is used with the auxiliary verb 'can', then 'help' never becomes 'helps'.

I can help you with your work.
You can help yourself too.
She can help a lot.
He can help me and you.
It can help me to improve my English skills. (It = this forum in your message above!)
We can help with this work.
They can help you.


Don't forget the capital letter at the start of all your sentences. :)
