After finishing French with Ease, I browsed through a couple of French based Assimil courses ( I was at a high beginner/low intermediate in French) and I was able to do well with the dialogues, but had some problems with the grammar explanations - though not much.
So you should be able to do OK, but it'll be much easier after going through Using French and native material obviously.

I have Spoken World Greek , although I haven't studied it thoroughly, and it does seem like a really good course.
For bera and others interested:
This simple and effective introduction to Greek teaches everything one needs to speak, understand, read, and write in Greek. This program assumes no background in the language, and it explains each new concept clearly with plenty of examples, making it ideal for beginners or anyone who wants a thorough review. Living Language Greek includes:
·A course book and six audio CDs (the first 3 CDs have the dialogues and vocabulary lists in Greek, with just a bit of English to introduce the chapter titles. The other 3 CDs have a lot of English & Greek and covers the dialogues and grammar in the book.)
·Two unique sets of recordings, one for use with the book, and a second for use anywhere to review and reinforce
·Natural dialogues, clear grammar notes, vocabulary building, and key expressions
·Plenty of practice, both written and recorded
·Notes on culture, cuisine, history, geography, and more
·Real life “discovery” activities and internet resources
·An extensive two-way glossary.

If you’re still interested in learning Greek through English, I recommend you use the Linguaphone method found on www.linguaphonelanguages.com. You’re in luck because not every language has a complete “Beginner to Advanced” selection, but they do for the current languages: Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish and Thai.
Of course there’s never just one system that can take you from Beginner to Advanced, but they do cover a great deal. The package includes 8 CD’s and 4 Books. You can find the Greek specific section here: www.linguaphonelanguages.com/inc/sdetail/3107. I have the Italian “Beginner to Advanced” package so I can personally tell you that this system is like Assimil on steroids.
I know the price looks scary, but if you’re interested let me know because I’ve bought 2 full kits with them before and there’re two different methods you can use to bring that price down to about $200.
