The hemisphere you are in (northern or southern) has an effect on when you experience the seasons. At points in the earth's orbit it is either the southern or northern hemisphere that is tilted further towards the sun. This makes that hemisphere warmer, experiencing summer while the other colder and experiences winter. Then six months later, things are reversed.

How are seasons in the northern hemisphere related to the seasons in the Southern Hemisphere?
It is winter in the northern hemisphere when it tilts away from the sun, and summer in the southern hemisphere when it tilts towards the sun. It is this tilting that creates the seasons.
Are the seasons the same in the north hemisphere as the south hemisphere?
Seasons in the northern hemisphere occur at opposite times to those in the southern hemisphere. For example, when it is winter in the southern hemisphere, it is summer in the northern hemisphere.
Does earth move near sun during winter?
Yes, the periapsis of the Earth's orbit is currently in January, when it is winter in the northern hemisphere. Note that this is unrelated to the seasons; the effect of the Sun's distance is secondary, compared to the tilt of the Earth's axis.Yes, the periapsis of the Earth's orbit is currently in January, when it is winter in the northern hemisphere.
