can someone teach how to use "to begin with" at the end of sentences?

Yes of course! It depends with if you are writing or speaking.
- For speaking, we generally don't use that phrase, but it is possible. Especially if you are speaking in a business or formal setting, like an interview.
- For writing, we use this phrase in essay writing for specific tasks related to things like IELTS. This phrase could be used in a body paragraph as a linking device (which IELTS marks for) to indicate the start of a paragraph.
Here are some examples <3
PROMPT: To what extent do you agree or disagree that fossil fuels are harmful for the environment. Give any examples from your own knowledge or experience.

- Fossil fuels are one of the prime causes for damage to our environement. I agree completely that the releases from these fuels ought to be not only limited but also controlled by governments globally.
- To begin with, fossil fuels exacerbate the compounding problem of CO2 released in our atmosphere.

I hope this helps. Good luck and ask if you need help!
