彼女は marks her as the main topic of the sentence: as for her...
Later, 日本語が marks Japanese ability as the thing that is changing or being described. With 上手になる (to become good/skilled), the thing that becomes good is commonly marked with が.
So the structure is roughly:
- 彼女は = as for her
- 日本語が上手になる = her Japanese becomes good / she becomes good at Japanese
In other words, は sets the topic, while が marks what is specifically doing or receiving the description in that part of the sentence.
Here, で shows the means or medium used to do something.
So 日本語で日記を書く means to write a diary in Japanese.
Some common uses of で are:
- place where an action happens: 学校で勉強する
- tool/means: ペンで書く
- language/medium: 日本語で話す, 英語で書く
So in this sentence, 日本語で does not mean at Japanese or with Japanese literally. It means using Japanese.
