I'm afraid there really are no simple ways to learn verbs at a faster pace. Honestly, I recommend picking up PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT SPANISH VERB TENSES. It's a workbook that not only teaches all conjugations, but is full of excersises to practice what the book teaches. It is about $11.00 (USD) at Borders and Barnes&Nobles. It is excellent, and I use it myself.

Most bookstores will have books on Spanish grammar. IDIOT'S GUIDE TO SPANISH is great for grammar.

I hope this helps somewhat. The resources I listed above, I have used and benefited from.

Here are some basic rules of Spanish sentence structure:

1. Word order is generally Subj.-Verb-Obj. (as in English)

2. Adjectives generally follow the noun they modify and agree in gender and number with the noun.

i.e. gato blanco (White Cat) gatos blancos (White Cats) casa blanca (White House)

casas blancas (White Houses)

I have found a website, studyspanish.com, to be very useful. I have been trying to learn spanish for 10 years, and this program has helped spanish grammer to just click in my head. It is free, but you also have the option of signing up for more advanced lessons. I hope this site helps you out a little!
