I need a very good translator to translate the following phrases
And please don't send me a link to Babelfish Translation or some other online service (as if I didn't already know where they're located). I want an answer from an actual human being with a background in grammatically correct French.

1. My Friend asks: "How long have you been Studying French?"
2. We have been studying French for two years.
3. We love the teacher and we help her.
4. We put everything in order.
5. Everyone cleans the desks.
6. We erase the chalkboard.
7. We begin the lesson on time.
8. We correct the homework in class.


I would really appreciate any help from anyone, I already have these phrases translated in my own words, but since my French is weak, I need the correct answer to check my mistakes.
Thanks~

1. Mon ami(e) me demande: "Depuis combien de temps/Depuis quand étudies-tu le français?"
2. Nous étudions le français depuis deux ans.
3. Nous aimons beaucoup le professeur (or "prof.") et nous l'aidons.
4. On remet tout en place or On range tout (the latter is, I think, better - well, no, it's the same, actually!)
5. Tout le monde nettoie les bureaux.
6. Nous effaçons le tableau.
7. Nous commençons le cours à l'heure.
8. Nous corrigeons les devoirs en classe.

I'm never quite sure if I correct exercises right because the sentences always seem unnatural!
Ex: 5. Tout le monde nettoie SON bureau (would seem more logical, but that's not what is written)
Ex: Are you sure it's ""asks" in 1.?

You can also use "on" instead of "nous".

PS: "professeur" is always "masculine", even when you're talking about a woman. However, when you use "prof." (usually when you're talking), you say "le" or "la" depending on her gender.
