Not sure about study but there's definitely need for maintenance.

Routledge has a very good series — Modern Grammar. The first part is a brief description of major grammar points the second part (Functions — see attachement) contextualises it — what kind of grammar structures you need to use if you want to express doubt, to describe events etc. I find it quite useful, since for me this is ultimately what grammar is — a meta-information essential to get your message across. That's why I could never understand why people dread about it, since grammar is your ally, not your enemy.
I truly want it as an ally and good friend. However, it doesn't cooperate with me when I reach out to become friends it more often than not lifts up its nose and walks away from me. I truly want it as an ally but it truly pushes me away with cold indifference.grammar is your ally, not your enemy

So I usually try to get a grammar workbook and start right away or follow a textbook that has some decent grammar practice. Even when I was trying to do things more nature method style, I still loved reading about the grammar as it just made things 'click' way faster and meant I was able to get the most out of my immersion.
