I want to get better at English skill and cooking.
I’ve lived in Australia for five months but I don’t feel my English skill improving especially listening and speaking. Needless to say, I’ve been on plateau.
When I negotiate something with someone and try dealing with customer’s complains, I would struggle how to convince and how to say with formal and correct English.
In addition, I don’t like phone in English, it’s too difficult to listen to what they say. I prefer texting to calling but I know I have to practice it.
For cooking, I can’t cook many king of food, so I want to step up my game and broaden my range of cooking.
As I love Thai and Indian foods, I want to try to make it from the scratch by myself.
It seems to be difficult but if I could cook it, I could eat it every time, it must be amazing!

The other corrections are good, but this is fine as well

In addition, I don’t like speaking on the phone in English, i. It’s too difficult to listenhear to what they say.
I prefer texting to calling but I know it's something I have to practice it.
Your original sentence makes sense, but the 'it' at the end is a bit unnatural.

Your writing is actually really good. It's rare to see an English learner using lots of idiomatic expressions. Keep up the good work!

Since you are talking about your English skills directly, you should put "my" in front of it
Also, there's more than one skill involved in English (for example: reading, writing, listening, speaking...), you should say "English skills" instead of "English skill"
I’ve lived in Australia for five months, but I don’t feel like my English skills have been improving, especially with my listening and speaking abilities.
Sounds smoother like this.
You need a comma before "especially" and "but"

You can just say "customer complaints" when you are dealing in customer service, but if you are talking about one specific customer, then say:
When I negotiate something with someone and try dealing with a customer's complaints...
In addition, I don’t like to phone in English, i. It’s too difficult to listen to what they say.
I think it's Australian English to say "to phone", but in American English, I would say "I don't like to talk on the phone in English" or "I don't like to call in English"
I prefer texting to calling, but I know I have to practice ithis skill.
