Flying is the fun part. After all, that's why you're doing this.

Over the next few months, you'll learn an array of skills to make you a safe pilot. First, you'll learn to take-off. Next, you'll learn to handle the airplane in a variety of situations – turns, climbs, and descents. Then, you'll master your landings and fly by yourself for the first time.

Soon, you'll navigate to other airports, both with your instructor (who, by now, will rarely take the controls) and by yourself. You'll fly at night. And you'll try instrument flying, where you'll use the cockpit gauges to control the airplane.

Flying will be second nature.  A little polishing, a good score on your Written Exam, and you're ready for your practical test. Just show the examiner what you know and you're a pilot.
