How Would You Describe Ismaila?
I am sure she knows things that she needs to improve about herself here. Now this is a debate for her to see what she needs to work on.
I would read about the Cosmological argument (Kalam and from contingency) as well as how they are both wrong. About the teleological argument and how it is wrong. About the ontological argument and about how it, while not technically wrong, would never stand in an evidence-based debate. Read up on Occam's Razor, God of the Gaps, the Celestial Teapot, the Problem of evil, the problem of hell, th problem of perfect design, the problem of worship (as ReventonRage so kindly introduced me to), the omnipotence paradox and how to refute it, etc. etc. I guess reading about the various logical fallacies wouldnt hurt either (question begging and circular arguments, ad hominem, ad populum, etc.). Those were the main things I learned about at least (even some through people on this site). Good luck! 2

She becomes personally upset when others challenge her beliefs. This is a debate website, your beliefs WILL be challenged, there is no reason to be upset by this. It is nothing against you personally, it's just the nature of debate.Not everyone is going to agree with you and there is nothing wrong with that. Just provide reasons and/or evidence to support your positions and you will be fine. 1

To be totally honest, I don't think she will last on here. She is far too sensitive for the internet in general. And she reacts poorly when someone tests her beliefs. These two problems will not make her successful at all on here. Not to mention she has a skewed idea of people's meanings on here. For example, she called me a liar, when I never lied, nor intended to. I'm not trying to be rude here, just some honest criticism. 2
