The word maybe can be used to open a sentence. The fear instilled in you by a well-intentioned but perhaps too directive teacher was that in using the word maybe at the start of the sentence you might commit a fragment. After a sentence, the tag "Maybe so" is a fragment appropriate for colloquial speech but not formal writing. When maybe stands for "It may be that," you can certainly use it to start a sentence as in "Maybe I will." If I've not answered your question fully, perhaps you could give an example of what you mean.

Is can i help you a open ended question?

No. The answer could be yes, no or maybe. The answerer is not invited to express an opinion or to give reasons or explanations, but is restricted/limited by the form of the question. But "How can I help you?" is an open-ended question because we have no way of knowing what the reply might be. It is open to the answerer to reply as they wish, except, of course, they must not answer Yes, No or Maybe!
