How to actually get to native speaker level?

I really feel my English has plateaued. I live in the US, work full time, talk to my neighbor and coworkers every day. However, I don’t feel I’m improving, because the people I talk to will not point out my problems. I’m also comfortable speaking at work but I only use the words I know repetitively. Any suggestions? Any platform is helpful? Most of the tools on the market are for beginners IMO.

"It's very hot in this room". Why "it" is used in this text?

I don't understand why "it" is used in this text. What's "it"? Could you tell me the grammatical rule used in this text?

Is it true that "how do you do?" means how are you in Canada?

I've only known this phrase as a formal greeting comparable to "nice to meet you" but I was told it means "how are you doing?" in Canada, is that correct?

What is the difference between "Have you eaten?" and "Did you eat?"?

For me, both phrases mean the same thing, I'm not sure if I'm right or not. And what about "I have made a cake for you" and "I made a cake for you"? Are they interchangeable? Knowing whether I should use perfect present or past simple is quite tricky for me.

“I need to go. I have something to do.” What words can we use here instead of “I have some to do” if we don’t want to specify the thing that we are going to do? Thanks.
