Sure. First, the best thing to do to familiarize yourself with syntax is
read the Hebrew Bible- or get yourself a NT in Hebrew- that is really a
tremendous boon for comprehension of Hebrew. Then, and only after you have
done a few months of reading in the Hebrew text, get Weingreen's grammar and
work through it. He discusses syntax in a very comprehensive manner.
Finally, when you finish Weingreen (all the while reading Hebrew every day)
get Gesenius' grammar and work through it.

Take about 15 minutes a day reading and then advancing as suggested above
and you will soon have a good handle on it.
