You're in luck. Verbs in English only conjugate in the third person singular.
I go - He goes
I work - he works
I watch - He watches
I play - He plays
I read - He reads
I speak - He speaks
I say - He says
I see - He sees
I cock - He cocks (as in to cock a weapon)
I visit - He visits
All of those verbs conjugate regularly.
Verbs don't really conjugate in other tenses, but they do take on an extra ending to indicate the tense. Some of those verbs are irregular in certain tenses.
Simple past:
I go - I went (or You/he/she/they/we went)
I work - I worked
I watch - I watched
I play - I play
I read (pronounced like 'reed') - I read (pronounced like 'red')
I write - I wrote
I speak - I spoke
I say - I said
I see - I saw
I cock - I cocked
I visit - I visited
Just add 'ing' to the end of those word to get the continuous form.
Ex.
I say - I am saying
Verbs don't change in future tense. You just need to add will/shall before the verb.
Ex.
I see - I will see
You listed the verbs in their infinitive forms.

By to cock do you mean to cook? Cocking as a verb is a little unusual, if you use it you might make people laugh!
One typo in Jmat's list - to play - played
Write becomes writing
