• Grammar is a structure made up of several structures, therefore, start learning  from the basic elements: auxiliary verbs, pronouns, basic vocabulary items. 
• Subject is obligatory, if you omit that, sentences are ungrammatical.
• Word order is almost fixed. There are basic sentence patterns, they cannot change. Learn them by heart. 
• Adjectives are placed before nouns.  They are invariable words as far as gender and number (singular/ plural)  are concerned. 
• Do not translate verbal tenses into your own language, it can always lead to trouble because the same structrures do not appear in the same way in every language. 
• Avoid translating items like modal verbs and -ing forms. Understand them as grammatical elements instead.
