Just wherever they're useful. The Vg1 curriculum is more general, but you are expected to know a little history. Just make sure you have an updated textbook.
It will follow a preposition, such as in my example sentences: thinking OF visiting; look forward TO seeing, did it BY working. This is especially important for my students to know because in our language an inifitive marker (the to in English) would be used, which would make them produce incorrect sentences like: I'm thinking of TO visit, I look forward to TO work, she did it by TO work hard. But there are other instances as well, and the key is to remember that the gerund, while looking like a verb, functions as a noun, as a thing. In the sentence "Painting is rewarding", the word painting functions as a noun, as a thing, with "is rewarding" describing that thing. The word "rewarding" in that sentence is not the gerund, it's the adjective. In "Tom enjoys reading", "reading" is the thing that he enjoys, as if you said "Tom enjoys books". Whatever follows enjoys, it's the thing that is being enjoyed, grammatically speaking. The sentence "I saw them talking" is technically not a gerund in this sense, since "talking" describes what the the people are doing, so it's more of an adjective. But it still makes sense (to me and my students at least) to think of it as a thing they are doing, an activity, which is a noun. That makes it easier to remember to use the -ing form. I'm not a professor of English grammar or anything, but this should be good enough for my students who are learners of English.

Wait, 'Painting is rewarding'. Where's the preposition in that sentence, is 'is' the preposition? You said the Gerund has to follow a preposition?
