These questions are about the subject of a sentence:
Who takes you to school?
Where is your favourite place?
What annoys you the most?
When is convenient?
Do not add the auxiliary verb 'do' ('do', 'does', 'did'): Who takes you ...? not Who does take you ...?

Yes/no questions -
These questions usually only need a short answer like 'yes'/'yes, of course' or 'no'/ 'no, I'm sorry'.
Are you ready?
Is that convenient?
Do you remember me?
Can you send me the report, please?
Use the auxiliary verb before the subject: Do you remember ...? not You do remember ...?
4
Object questions
These questions are about the object of a sentence:
Where do you want to meet?
Who did you invite to the meeting?
Why couldn't you go?
How much is this going to cost?
Remember to use an auxiliary verb ('do', 'did', 'have', 'can', etc.): Where do you want to meet? not Where you want to meet?
