DID is for the Past. If I am not wrong it is "fiz" in Portuguese.
It is the same for all presonal pronouns (I, you, he, she,it, we ,you (plural) ,they) .
You use DO for the 1st (I) , 2nd (you) and the Plural forms (we, you they, )
--> you can use DO for faço, fazes, fazemos, fazeis, fazem.
you use DOES ("faz") for the 3rd (he , she, it) person in Singular.

if you want past explain - You should "did" but You shouldn't positive sentence, For Example;
She came to England one mounth ago. (POSİTİVE SENTENCE AND VERB(2)). She didn't come to England.(NEGATİVE SENTECE(USE DİD NOT)). Did she come to England?(QUESTİON SENTENCE)
if you want simple present(DO,DOES)- You should be careful because He-She-İt to(verb + "-s",-"es") but You don't use negative sentence and question sentence.
I,YOU,WE,THEY use DO,
HE,SHE,İT use DOES
