No, that's as if you're comparing "my English" to "two years ago". You want to compare your English now to your English two years ago:
My English is better than it was two years ago.
("it" refers to "my English")

NO. It could have two correct versions.
1. My English was better two years ago (higly unlikely that language skills would fade).
So I would go with the second version :
2. My English is better than it was two years ago

You should say,"My English is better than it was two years ago.".

My English is better than "it was" two years ago.
"it" refers back to the subject, "My English".
Your sentence says,
My English is better than "Two Years",
"ago" has no purpose in this case.

Try "My English is better than it was two years ago."

Nope... its wrong...
It should be said as " My English is better now than it was two years ago."
