Sentence structure

How would you say-

I know a lot of the common words but I still have a hard time with sentence structure. But I am trying to learn from my boyfriend.

Please attempt to write this in Spanish. If it needs correction, someone here will assist you. Just translating for you won't help you learn.

Very good try!
Here are some comments and suggestions to make it better.
