I have been trying several different courses of late to see what I like.
I have Michel Thomas, Rocket German and FSI to name a few.
I find Assimil German with Ease my fit.
I listen to the dialogues, repeat out loud, write out the dialogues numerous times. I study lessons in blocks of seven. I am currently on the third block; lessons 15 to 21.
I listen to the earlier lessons at speed - fast play. Now that I know the dialogues well I like to hear them spoken quickly! I repeat them at the faster rate.
I know I can move on to the next block when I can hear them at speed and hear all the words and follow the conversations.
Since I like to revise whilst walking around in my lunch hour I get to overlearn the dialogues.
Thanks all for now

The following is what I am thinking of implementing. Still playing with it. What do people think?
for the active wave I might edit the audio to remove the gaps.....maybe for passive too
PASSIVE WAVE-
Read entire lesson (dialog, notes, exercises);
Read dialog L1 text for current lesson;
Listen to L2 while reading L2, then listen to L2 while reading L1 (do this step 5 times);
ACTIVE WAVE (Start on Lesson 1 Active when finish Lesson 50 Passive)
Blind shadow L2 audio without looking at any text (5 times);
Read dialog L1 text;
Shadow L2 audio while reading L1 (5 times);
Shadow L2 audio while reading L2 (5 times);
Read entire lesson (dialog, notes, exercises);
Do exercises;
Scriptorium for lesson one time (say L1 first, then say L2, then write L2 while speaking L2, then speak L2
again);
Read alternating sentences (L1, L2) aloud for lesson one time;
Translate entire dialog from L1 into L2;
Enter sentences into SRS.
