I would suggest a couple of minor changes to the first sentence to improve the reading. The rest looks OK. m.

Thank you very much for your corrections. I really appreciate it. I have a question about Tuesday October 15. Is this the correct order to express the dates in writing?

You can write "Tuesday October 15" or "Tuesday 15 October". People quite often put a comma after the day name, but in this case I thought it didn't go well with the comma before the time range.

Your original "October 15 (Tue.)" is not actually incorrect, but I thought that getting rid of the brackets made the notice look a bit "cleaner".
