Since Fritz has only book learning you can teach it from past games if you saved
any.  However I did a test a couple of months ago with learning and compared one
program with learning from 1700+ games to the same program with no learning and
the difference was too small to detect in a 200 game match.  Since most top
programs have many thousands of lines it will take a lot of learning to make
much difference.  The main advantage of learning is to prevent repeating losses
using the same line over and over.
