I hold an MA in teaching ESL. I know the rules well. But don't hit me with too many questions at once. Texts like the one you're using mostly introduce vocabulary that may be useful, or may not be enough. If the book doesn't give you different vocaublary to substitute in those phrases, you may want to come up with some of your own. When I was learning my second language, I really liked phrase repetition. When you get grammar rule questions you can’t answer, you can bring them to me. I hold an MA in teaching ESL.

Of course, the dialog can't be too weird, and I don't know if this works for pure beginners. But because the segment was generally funny, and the students probably wanted to understand what the laughing was about, they paid close attention.
