The exercises covered a range of grammar topics including conditional sentences, prepositions, and changing between British and American English. Vocabulary and meanings of words in context were also practiced.

Zero conditional (If you exercise every day, you get strong legs), first conditional (If you break it, you pay for it), second conditional (If you treated her better, you wouldn't argue all the time), and third conditional (If her plane hadn't landed late, she would have caught the last bus) were examples given.

Prepositions such as 'about', 'to', 'for', 'of', 'on', 'at', and 'in' were used to complete sentences in one exercise.
