¡Hola, Liz! Claro que sí. Anytime you'd like exercises, I have those too! Be sure to list your level, textbook, with author & publisher. I'm familiar with most textbooks published in the USA.
UN COMPLEMENTO SIMPLE (Single Object Pronouns)
LOS COMPLEMENTOS DIRECTOS (Direct Object Pronouns)
Ana no "me" visita.
Ann does not visit me.
Ana no "te" visita.
Ann does not visit you (familiar)
Ana no le visita. (Only in castellano.) (m)
Ana no "lo" visita.
Ann does not visit him, it. (masculine)
Ana no "la" visita.
Ann does not visit her, it. (feminine)
________________________________(now plural)
Ana no "nos" visita.
Ann does not visit us.
Ana no os visita. (not in all textbooks)
Ann does not visit you (familiar plural)
Ana no "los" visita.
Ann does not visit them, you-all (could be all masculine OR masculine & feminine mixed)
Ana no "las" visita.
Ann does not visit them, you-all (feminine only)
NOTE: 1. Either "le" or "lo" may be used to translate "him." The first is called "leísmo" and is not in most textbooks.
2. The plural of either "le" or "lo" is "los."
No le visito. = No lo visito.
(I do not visit him, you.)
No los visito.
(I do not visit them, you-all.)
After you study these (me, te, lo, la, nos, los,las) ask any questions you might have.

LOS COMPLEMENTOS INDIRECTOS (Indirect Object Pronouns)
Ana no "me" habla.
Ann does not speak to me.
Ana no "te" habla.
Ann does not speak to you. (familiar)
Ana no "le" habla.
Ann does not speak to him, to her, to you)
________________________________ (now plural)
Ana no "nos" habla.
Ann does not speak to us.
Ana no os habla.
Ann does not speak to you-all, fem, fam.)
Ana no "les" habla.
Ann does not speak to them, to you-all)
NOTE: The meanings of "le" and "les" may be clarified by adding prepositional pronouns: a él, a ella, a Ud., a ellos, a ellas, a Uds. after the verb.
Ana le habla a él. Ann speaks to him.
Without the "a él" the sentence is free to be interpreted "to him, to her, to you" etc.
(me, te, le, nos, os, les) After you study those, ask any questions you might have.

LA POSICION: POSITION OF OBJECT PRNOUNS
Object pronouns generally precede the (conjugated) verb.
Pedro no la ve. = Peter doesn't see her.
Carmen les escribe. = Carmen writes to them.
EXCEPTIONS: (if any of this is too soon for you, just save it because you WILL get to it!)
1. Affirmative command.
Tómelo Ud. = Take it.
BUT
No lo tome Ud. = Don'g take it.
2. Infinitive
Voy a tomarlo. OR Lo voy a tomar. = I am going to take it.
3. Present participle (ending in -ndo)
Dolores está tomándolo. OR Dolores lo está tomando. = Dolores is taking it.
NOTE: 1. Object pronouns follow and are attached to the affirmaative command (but pr4ecede the negative command.) Be sure to add the accent mark!
2. Object pronouns may either follow the infinitive and present participle or precede the verb on which they depend. (It's nice to have a choice but it is a choice = either OR, not one in front and one behind, when you study Double Object Pronouns.) Again, when they follow, you need to worrk about accent marks with the present participle.
The accent mark is generally required on the vowel that is stressed (with affirmative command or present participle.)
I wish I could copy & paste what is on my computer because then I can underline, use bold face type to emphasize. I'm really limited here by having to retype everything! Hopefully there are no typos!
