First of all, please let me congratulate you on the fact that you are writing for CodeProject. It's truly a wonderful thing choosing to share knowledge with others. Now, if you are wondering why someone says it should be a tip/trick and not an article, it's normally because of one of these things:

The article is primarily a code dump. There's very little explanation of the code.
The article is short. It shows what you are doing but doesn't explain why you are doing it, what made you choose to implement it that way, what the alternatives were that you rejected and so on.
The article is short - even with a full explanation of why you chose to do it that way and so on, the actual code is still only two or three lines long.

If you want to see what constitutes an article, please go and read articles by Nish Sivakumar, Marc Clifton, Sacha Barber, Daniel Vaughan, Paulo Zemek and many other wonderful authors. The thing you will see in all of their work is attention to detail and the amount of thought they put into crafting their articles.

As far as your English goes, don't worry too much about it. When you finish writing an article, don't submit it - leave it in composing status and email Sean Ewington to ask if a CodeProject mentor can take a look at it. The mentors will generally help guide you through the process of getting your article published. They will tell you what needs to be changed and why.
