I think, I need a better understanding of the grammatical principles to create proper English sentences.

Hey delfino,

I thank you for correcting my message.

i think i'ts the wrong place for this, but i dont know.

so i ask here.

Can u say me, where i have write the letter begin large?

What i mean is: you corrected not ne I'am above "About me" but the "I " want to improve...."

the other thing is, where i use the differnce between I I'am and I'm? or is it all the same?

the same here: we are oder we're ?

I'm a bit bored (I'm sitting in a hotel room a few hundred kilometers from home) so I'm going to answer your questions.

So your first question is about capitalization (Groß- und Kleinschreibung). In English the rules of capitalization are easily enumerated.

You have to capitalize (= groß schreiben):
- the word "I". It's always written as "I" and never as "i".
- the beginning of each sentence and each paragraph
- all names including all geographical names (countries, cities, rivers), the names of languages and nationalities.
- all proper nouns

Your second question was what difference there is between "I am" (no apostrophe) and "I'm" and other contractions, as these are called. In normal language you're fine to use contractions. In everyday language using "I am" instead of "I'm" puts emphasis on the "am".
However, in formal written language contractions are often frowned upon, so you shouldn't use them for example in an essay or similar.
