Hello, I speak a little bit of german, enough to understand, but I want to learn it fluently.
I've been learning it at school for 3 years, haven't learnt much for 3 years. D:
Just some of the grammar.
I need to know a little bit more about grammar and word order.
Danke für Ihr Zeit.

Have you tried reading in German? That'll help you loads more than any bit of advice on the guild.
That said, I can give you a couple of tips on word order.
In a simple declarative sentance (read: not a question or command), the conjugated verb is almost always the second part of the sentance.
For example:
Ich ging gestern zum Strand. (lit:I went yesterday to the beach.)
or
Gestern ging ich zum Strand. (lit: yesterday went I to the beach.)
Either is technically correct. The word order changes to reflect emphasis, but the verb remains the second part of the sentance.
-----
When giving a bit more description, one should keep in mind that time, manner and place are usually explained in that order unless specific emphasis is being placed on any of those factors.
If I went to the beach yesterday with my friends, I would usually say:
Ich ging gestern mit meinem Freunde zum Strand.
or
Gestern ging ich mit meinem Freunde zum Strand.
If special emphasis is needed on one of the details, word order could be changed to reflect that, though.
