Do i put a comma after starting a sentence with this?

It entirely depends on what your sentence is. Usually there will be no comma, for example:

'This is the happiest day of my life.'

'This was definitely not what I was expecting.'

'This meat is too tough for me to eat.'

In constructions like examples 1 and 2 above, there will be a comma if 'this' is separated from the verb that follows it, for example:

'This, the so-called happiest day of my life, is turning into a disaster.'

'This, which was supposed to be making my life easier, is causing me extra work.'

Remember that a written comma normally corresponds to a spoken pause. Say your sentence aloud and see if you would naturally pause after 'this'. For the constructions illustrated above, note that the commas come in pairs, because they act as parentheses.

Should you put a comma before or after anyway?

It depends on what you're writing. Here are 2 examples, one with a comma before and one with a comma after.

Anyway, I didn't want to go.

She can't help you, anyway.

Make a sentence using i is?

"I is the ninth letter of the alphabet"

"H is the eight letter and I is next"

"The King And I is a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical"

"Chapter I is good"

"In computer programming, a variable called i is often used in loops"

These are all trick answers (cheating).

When 'I' is the subject of the sentence, you say "I am..." or "You and I are..." so maybe there are only trick answers.

Which is right I heard your name mentioned or being mentioned at the conference?

They are both correct.

There is, however, slight difference in meaning where "I heard your name mentioned at the conference" seems to indicate that you were mentioned quickly and the topic of conversation moved on. The reference to you may have been positive or neutral in character, but not by much. "I heard your name being mentioned at the conference" seems to indicate that several people were discussing you in depth either very well or very poorly.
