For your second question:

1) Avoid liberal usage of 'yo'. It provides unnecessary emphasis.

Yo soy doctor. Yo creo que doctores son personas responsables. Mi hermana es doctora. Yo creo que es muy responsable.

A Spanish native would see this as:

I, and definitely I, am a doctor. I, unlike others, think that doctors are responsible people. My sister is a doctor. I, as in me, myself and I, think that she is very responsible.

2) 'Estoy camino mi perro' should be 'Saco al perro'. The first sentence means 'I am walk in the dog'. You cannot use two verbs in the indicative within the same clause. 'Estoy camino' *does not exist * in Spanish. Sacar al perro means to walk the dog.

3) 'Voy mi casa' -> I go my house. You are missing a preposition.

4) I don't think el television is necessary. Ver television will probably be understood.

5) 'Va trabaja' -> Goes work. You need a preposition. It is trabajar, not trabaja (again, you cannot use the indicative twice in the same clause).

6) 'Habla el teléfono' (mind the accent) -> 'Speaks telephone'. Unless she actually goes cring cring beep boop, I think you mean 'hablar por teléfono' (to speak over the telephone).

7) 'yo comenzado estudio el leccion de español'. Comenzado estudio does not exist in Spanish. You want to use the present indicative (I start), not the past participle (I started(?)) (It doesn't even mean that properly). Again, you have to use the infinitive form (the -ar form) of estudio here.

8) ayudo preparo el almuerzo. Same deal as above. Also, go here and read the bit which says 'help [somebody] to do [something]' and the Spanish equivalent. You are missing a preposition.

9) 'Nosotros tanamos tacos y quisidillas'. You can lose the nosotros. There is no 'tanamos', perhaps you mean 'tenemos' (we have)?

10) 'lavo el platos y mi perro' -> Perfect, except you used 'el' for the plural platos.

11) I am not sure what you are trying to say with the last two lines.

Buenos días

Buenas noches

¡Buena suerte!

Buen perro.

Como manzanas.

Comes naranjas.

Comemos manzanas y naranjas.

Él come melocotónes.

You can write 8 lines from the above stuff. The remaining two can be 'In Spanish, nouns and adjectives agree in number and gender' and 'In Spanish, verbs and nouns must agree in person.'

¡Buena suerte!
