The only thing I always had problems with is the amount of tenses. In my language there are only 3, we don't use anything similar to perfect.
Like the sentences I saw him. I've seen him. I had seen him.
I know the theory, but even though I've been using English for years It still feels awkward.

To and too; it's and its; then and than.. and so on. There are many more. These small writing rules are a bit to learn, but once you get the hang of them you're good to go.
You can always use Google when you're stuck.

People tend to mix up 'your' and 'you're' quite often as well. For OP, it's spelled as well not 'aswell'; took me some time to learn this too.

Yes, this makes me always laugh.  Cheesy
Although I have never mixed your with you're, since I've started learning English. It is so easy. Much easier than ( Tongue) 'then' and 'than'.

English is a difficult language to learn. I have props for anyone who has bothered to learn another language (or has just mastered their own language  Grin).

I don't know how is best to use the words too vs to and would like some help better understanding how "to" do so.  I feel like I missed a day of English class when all of this was covered in my younger years and it's now time to catch up.   Smiley

To my limited understanding I think too should take the place of the word also, or atleast that is how I've come look at it.  I'd like to be more grammatically correct with my words and would like anyone knowledgeable and willing to help me and others that may have the same issues better understand what is right way to use these words. 

This can also be about common mistakes you notice but for now let's try and keep it simple please so that people actually learn something instead of feeling intimated by the intellect or another and don't bother learning anything.  I'm also confused about words that spell check underlines as a word that has been spelled incorrectly.  For example atleast is underlined when I type it out but I think that is how it's spelled, am I incorrect?  Things of this nature is what I'd liked to be discussed, please and thanks for your help in advance..

Not sure what "day" you missed in school, but it's suffice to say that a lot of shit was covered that particular day according to your OP.
