It is often more productive to jump in at the deep end with language learning and read and listen to articles and conversations by fluent speakers as much as possible. Reading in particular is especially valuable and helps you to learn masses of words indirectly without having to consciously remember them. The video channels on Youtube have been selected because they have subtitle options which greatly aid the learning process. The suggestion is to auto translate videos as you're watching them into English, slow down to 50-75% pace and click the bottom right column for a transcript in the target language so you can view both languages as the people speak. Translations are not always perfect, but it is a great way to listen and try to understand what is being said.
