1. もしもし is used when answering on the telephone only. Since this is an introduction, you want はじめまして ("Beginning,").

2. You need a は  between なまえ and Tim. Also Tim is チム.

3. すき is an adjective, not a verb, so すしをすき is grammatically incorrect.

4. アメリカにすんでいます。いえにはねこがごひきいます 。 I live in America. At my home are five cats.
も means "too" when tagged on to a noun. You can't tag it on to a sentence like you did. Usage: カイルも (Kyle, too), テキサスにも (to Texas, too), etc.

5. You cannot use を with わかる—only が. So when you understand X, it's Xがわかる, not をわかる. Also, ちいさい is an adjective meaning "small" or "little." すこし is the adverb you're looking for for "a little."
にほんごがすこしわかります。
