3. For verbs that end in -guir, change the gu to g for the yo form:

It is extremely important that you learn these verbs, because

material covered later assumes that you have mastered this. At
times, learning the irregular verbs may seem daunting, but it's not as
bad as it seems. Your best tool is your verb flashcards, which should
be separate from any other flashcards you might be using. Add the
