Would you correct my English? ( Nov 16 )

Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Would you check them, please?

No. 1

M: Hi, this is Grandma Kanako and Grandpa Taichi.

F: Nice to meet you. He is always helpful to me.

M: Oh, no. It is you that always help me.

F: Thank you. But in fact, he has a lot on the ball.

No. 2

M: I'd like to be a teacher of English. I wish I could speak English better.

F: Oh, you're a good speaker of English, already.

M: Thank you. But I don't think this is enough.

Thank you. kenta

M: Hi, this is Grandma Kanako and Grandpa Taichi.

F: Nice to meet you. M is always helpful to me. You need to say the name of the person "he" refers to. I'm guessing it's "M."

M: Oh, no. It is you that always help me.

F: Thank you. But in fact, he has a lot on the ball.

How is this correct? It should be 'we are' and not 'this is' because they are introducing themselves.

There should be 'who' instead of 'that' because this is referring to a person.
