The course has a big variety of grammatical rules. All these rules of course cannot be memorised without practise.
It serves as a guide to lead you in forming your own arguments, ideas, etc. For a deeper understanding, it can be repeated on a regular basis. The tables will also help you to go back and pick up the verb you want. The dialogues will help use either ready phrases or just essential words to convey the necessary message.
