I'm going to apologize now for a most likely very terrible example, but I'm trying. ;-;

You need だ there: にほんごがへた
だし.

I don't really understand what the problem is,

the し is coming after a "mini sentence" so you can just string a bunch of weak reasons together in the form of "mini sentences" using し to join them.
The difference, which you seem to understand anyway, is that し is used for multiple reasons and the から is used for a direct single reason.
