I thought so. But one never knows...

Before we do the next sentences, look up how 'math' is spelled, and make sure you know the gender of all the nouns you used. Adjectives must agree in number and gender with the nouns they modify. V
erbs must agree with their subjects.
A number of your mistakes fall into these areas. Perhaps you can change a few more things and lessen their numbers.

I'm a bit confused on what I should do with me. It needs to be suffixed to the infinitive encontrar but what does that necessarily mean?

As for the next sentence, this is what I came up with:
Yo tomo las clases de matemática, computación y historia.

I, in turn, do not speak English or Spanish well, despite the fact that I've been living in the US for thirty years and I am a native of Chile. I call it ignorance, of which I am conscientiously aware.

Then it seems your native language is not English?

Thank you anyway.

Hernan.

Thanks for your comments and words of advice. I'm originally from the island of Cyprus. I've moved to the U.S. twelve years ago and have been speaking ever since.

You're welcome.

Better.
You don't need the subject pronoun yo (it's clearly understood because of the verb ending).
The definite article (las) isn't needed. Tomo clases = I'm taking (I take) classes
"matemática" should be plural.
The word 'y' is changed to an 'e' when the word that follows it begins with 'i' or 'hi'.
Tomo clases de matemáticas, computación e historia.

Next.

Thank you so much!

This is what I have next:

Mi favorita es la clase de historia. Me gusta historia y estudiar el pasado.

Hello, (welcome to the forums) . Just one correction. (You normally will add the article in Spanish in this case.)

I'd probably say,
"La clase de historia es mi favorita" for the first sentence but the way you say it is totally fine too.

(By the way, I also like history and study the past... To the degree that helps me to understand the present and predict the future...)

Thanks for your help! This is what I have for the last three sentences.

La profesora es muy buena y enseña excelentemente. Los profesores de computación y matemática no son buenos. Los estudiantes en clases son útiles y ayudan en la tarea.

I marked suggestions in blue.
"Excelentemente" even if not "incorrect", I don't think it is much used. (There are some writers that avoid totally the adverbs in "-mente".)
I'd probably just say "enseña muy bien". Or probably "enseña estupendamente" (in this case the "estupendamente" seems more common to my ear.)
You can use "matemática/s" both, singular and plural, but I have heard it a lot more with the "s". (My brother-in-law is a Math teacher, and he says "Soy profesor de matemáticas".)

Regarding "útiles" this is a modifier (adjective) that you'd use with a tool, or a book... maybe with a person too, but in this context doesn't seem to fit. If you meant "helpful" I'd say "siempre están dispuestos a echar una mano" (they are are always willing to lend a hand). I put "amistosos" as I read your original post = friendly.

Hope this helps.
