It depends. Are you a beginner or an advanced student? To gain a broad spectrum though, focus on:
Verbs:
1) The present simple
2) The present/past continuous; gerunds
3) The past participle
4) Modal verbs
5) The conditional (zero, first, second, third)
7) The infinitive & imperative moods
Other:
8) Pronouns, including demonstrative & emphatic
9) Prepositional phrases
10) Use of the apostrophe
If you master that lot you're well on your way! Good luck!
