我的姐姐和我相处很密切因为她帮助我学数学。姐姐和我年龄差不多。
This translates to: I am very close with my older sister because she helps me learn maths. Our age gap is close/small/not big.

(If there are any fluent Mandarin speakers, please correct me if I'm wrong!)

Yours is mostly correct, tho I'm not sure about the end sentence, it's just a stray sentence, but doesn't show that it's the cause of the closeness.

This would be my translation =)
我的姐姐和我相处很密切因为她帮助我学数学, 另外我们的年龄差不多。

Here, ling wai (另外), means additionally (It's a better way of adding ideas instead of using and).

We have already mentioned the sister, so we can use we instead of saying sister and myself again =)
