How can I write correct sentences?
Let me recommend a book that might help: The Art of Styling Sentences by K.D. Sullivan. It provides 20 or so sentence structures in English.The other means to writing correct sentences is toread and pay attention to how sentences are constructed. This means you’ll have to understand parts of speech;find and use an old writing/grammar text and do all of the exercises until you are a master. If possible, get the teacher’s edition with all of the answers. Used bookstores, some libraries and yes, some schools, will often have these available. I often gave old student/teacher editions to students for their parents or to the parents directly to help them.enroll in an English class at your local community college.For all of these suggestions, you’ll need to understand parts of speech so that when someone says the verb is irregular or you’re asked to change the verb to match the subject of the sentence, you’ll know what someone is talking about.

Have you wrote the exam? is this sentence correct?
No, it's "Have you written the exam"? As others have said, the specific idiomatic usage here is that a teacher WRITES an exam (i.e., creates it), while students TAKE or COMPLETE an exam. Why "written" and not "wrote"? Well, the specific verb tense construction used here is the present perfect, which describes an action completed at one finite point in the past: I have eaten that sandwich. I have seen the exam. I have taken the ring to Mordor. As you can see, the basal form of the verb used here is the passive participle (eaten, seen, taken), NOT the simple past (ate, saw, took). For some verbs, these two are the same thing, but for most English verbs, it's different. The past participle is actually an ADJECTIVE, and can be used to describe nouns: The eaten sandwich burbled in my stomach. The seen exam was thrown out. The taken ring was sorely missed by Sauron. The simple past, on the other hand, is pretty much always a verb, and so can't describe nouns.
What are some grammatically correct sentences in English that are hard to understand for a beginner? E.g., “All the faith he had had had had no effect on his life.”
As Enrique points out, multiple "centre-embeddings" (essentially nested subordinate clauses) can make a text hard to read even for the experienced reader. And some authors do it a lot. Consider the following from Virginia Woolfe's "To the Lighthouse": "Since he belonged, even at the age of six, to that great clan which cannot keep this feeling separate from that, but must let future prospects, with their joys and sorrows, cloud what is actually at hand, since to such people even in earliest childhood any turn in the wheel of sensation has the power to crystallise and transfix the moment upon which its gloom or radiance rests, James Ramsay, sitting on the floor cutting out pictures from the illustrated catalogue of the Army and Navy stores, endowed the picture of a refrigerator, as his mother spoke, with heavenly bliss."I can't easily show a parse diagram in this forum, but I've done one (and the sentence structure turns out to be ambiguous), but suffice to say that it's complicated and if a beginner struggled with it they'd be in good company.
