  Starting with lesson 20, they give you the aorist (which they call just "past", unfortunately. It's a bit more complicated than that...) and the imperative forms of every new verb they introduce.

  Active voice imperatives:
While there are a few scattered (non-continuous) imperatives that are used in the early Audio Lessons, the formal presentation of imperatives begins in Lessons 32, 33, and 34 with the non-continuous singular (εσύ) of active verbs. The plural forms (εσείς) are introduced in L35.
Lesson 60 contrasts continuous/imperfective (from present stem) and non-continuous/perfective (from aorist stem) imperatives of active stem-stressed verbs. Lesson 100 concludes LGO's treatment of this subject with the continuous and non-continuous imperatives of active end-stressed verbs.

Middle/passive voice imperatives:
Learn Greek Online does not cover middle/passive verbs beyond the present tense. It never uses nor formally introduces the past of any middle or passive verbs, nor does it ever use any middle/passive imperatives, either continuous or non-continuous, for these 2 voices.
