Good job Irina, After each comma, there should be a space before you start writing the next word.
You can also write it like this:
My family is not large, We are four people, my father and mother, my sister and I live together. My sister is older than me, she is 24 years old. I also have two uncles and aunts and many cousins but, they don't live with us.
My family is not big, we are four people s. My father, my mother, my sister and I me live s in our house. My sister is older. She is 24 years old. Besides them I have many cousins, two uncles and aunts, but they don`t live with us.
.... and I live in our house.Besides them I have many cousins..........
1) My Family is not big. We are four people. We are a small family of four - 5/10

I hope this helps :-)
very good, Irina,
My family is not big. We are four peoples. My father, my mother, my sister and (me) I live(s) in our house. My sister is older. She is 24 years old. Besides, I have many cousins, two uncles and aunts, but they don`t live with us.
ok
"My father, my mother, my sister, and I live in our house."
Don't forget that when you are making a list as such, it is plural. You are talking about multiple people or things. The first person singular form of "to live" is "live." :) Don't forget the comma before the "and".
"I also have many cousins and two uncles and aunts, but they don't live with us."
"Besides" doesn't work in this context. It doesn't make any sense at all actually. You should use "also" instead, as I have shown. Don't forget to pluralize "cousins" too. :)
Good job all in all. If you ever get on Skype at a time that I'm also on, we can work on your English more!! I miss you! You should send meh your Skype name in a message. :)
Good job :)

My family is not big. There are four of us. My father, my mother, my sister and I live in our house. My sister is older. She is 24 years old. Also I have many cousins, and two uncles and aunts, but they don't live with us.
well done
great corrections they gave you:)
I think a useful expression here is "There are four of us in my family"
