"还有" (háiyǒu) is used to express "In addition..." in a conversation. It is introducing new information to the topic the speaker(s) is/are talking about. While it's not the most challenging grammar structure, an important thing to keep in mind is that 还有 starts a completely new sentence or clause.
Here are some examples using 还有 in this way:
- 哎呀，我 今天 有 两 个 期末 考试。还有 ，必须 写 完 中文 作文。
- 今天 特别 倒霉，他 的 数学 老师 告诉 他 他的 成绩 不 太好，还有 他 的 老板 要 解雇 他。
- 普通话 很难。还有 ，专家 觉得 日语、广东话、韩语，这 三 门 语言 也 很难。
