@Magsi -- You already know how to use the chatroom. People are free to respond -- or not respond -- to your attempts to start chatroom conversations.

@Magsi -- Questions about "tiny" grammatical issues are welcome on the main ELL.SE site. Please include one or more examples, plus where you found the example(s), plus any context that might help people understand the examples. It would help if you can say what research you have done, or why you think a possibility (or possibilities) are right or wrong.
@Jasper , tiny questions confuse me.
Khan sir solves them easily.
What may I do sir?
I am confused.

@Magsi Here are two choices for you:
@Magsi, if a user hasn't been to chat, you can't ping them. If they are not here right now, leave a ping-message or come back another time. And for f's sake, just ask a question on main! This is ELL, which is explicitly for beginners. Write your question well and you'll even get reputation for it!
1) Ask questions that are consistent with the purpose of this site. Be patient; sometimes it will take months or years to get a really good answer.
2) Hire a tutor.
@Jasper OK, thanks for helping me.
@Jasper I couldn't agree more - and sorry for interrupting!
@Stephie it's OK.
I really want to see you people here.
I want to learn more and more from your efforts and knowledge.

Q: Hallo. How can I talk to the people of main site?

MagsiHow can I talk to the people of main site? I want to talk to the teachers of this main site. I want to meet Khan, J.R and other teachers. I am sorry to ask this useless question here but I really need to speak to them. I want to know the chat room where "Khan"is available, and other members o...

J.R. wrote a good answer.
@Magsi I agree with Jasper and Stephie above. It doesn't matter how tiny you think the question is. ELL is a great place for tiny questions, actually, providing that you do your part (your own attempt, examples, contexts, etc.) as Jasper suggested.
I agree with snailboat (and J.R. in his answer) too.
BTW, in my opinion, @Magsi, I don't think your last question, "Details of courses passed are/is as under", is not a tiny question at all. Of course, it could be thought of as tiny, but to me it's a very big problem. It's the root of several other problems. How can we become good at English if questions in our exercises are not good English?

Ahh... thanks, @StackExchange!
^I negated the clause incorrectly after finding the text and copy-and-pasting up there!

@J.R. Sir.

Life is "like" riding a bicycle.

Dear Sir:

Please identify to the word "like" in above sentence.

I think, it is a preposition in this sentence.
Is it so?

@Magsi J.R. didn't get your ping.
As for your answer, it's here:

Q: Like is used as a preposition

August What is the weather like? My first question: After looking up in the dictionary, I found that "like" can be used as a preposition, an adverb, a verb. In the above sentence, I think "like" functioning as a preposition is used to ask somebody’s opinion of somebody/something(http://www.oxfordle...

@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ. It couldn't help me.
Why not?
Did you read the answer?
Well, fine.
How would J.R get the ping?
He wouldn't unless he himself gets here.
TL;DR "like" is a preposition there, yes.
I was right?
19:14
Yep.
@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ. I have another question.
Yes?
^^^ Minor sentence.
Can we use "who"for the selection of a person?

Like : "which".

Example : Which of them is my dad?
Can you please explain it how ?
Sorry, it's network problem.
@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ.
19:28
Explain what part of it?
How can we use "who"for the selection of a person?
You mean making a construction like "who of them"?
It's ungrammatical.
It's an interesting question; you should ask on ELL.
Means how can we point out that person by using "who"when he is to be selected somewhere.
But I think by definition you're only looking for "which".
Where is ELL?
This is ELL, right?
