Please correct the following paragraph: ...with your very clear approach...

Please edit/correct the following paragraph:

Dear Sir,

I hope you are fine. I don't have words to thank you for your this favour. All I can say is that you are really a very nice person. I have never given you so much trouble if I wasn't in love with your very clear approach to difficult subject like Chemistry. God bless you.

I know I am going to ask you for more than enough. I hope you won't mind. It will be very kind of you, if you could also send me your autograph on a certain paper, which I can get framed and place in my room.

Kind regards,

Jackson

The "on a certain paper" is not natural. What type of paper did you mean? I'd like to have anyone's autograph on a $100 bill, but I don't promise to frame it

Jackson, I have to be honest. Asking a teacher for an autograph, with the intention of framing it for your room, sounds rather obsessive. I'm having a hard time thinking how to ask for that without sounding like a stalker.
