Read Fluent Forever by Gabriel Wyner, you'll be able to make a full plan for any language you want on your own.

I'll tell you what took me from zero to a2 in German in four months with minimal effort, you use this information and do as you will with it, I wish I started knowing these things.

Daily practice when you wake up, make it light, use duolingo and lingvist.

Create your own anki cards set.

Get a grammar book, I used Routledge beginner German grammar workbook. Work with this religiously for a month and you'll be fine in the grammar department, it has about 28 lessons so it shouldn't be that hard.

Watch a couple of movies in German paying attention to whatever word you can understand and if you notice words that keep repeating that you don't understand, write them down, add them to your Anki set for practice. This will give you a somewhat decent base.

Now comes the fun part, you're going to translate stories to your native language, or English, that's what I did. Google a torrent named German graded readers, it has 80 short stories ranging from A1 to whatever, pick some stories and start translating them, I've found this has helped my vocabulary greatly and now I can read at a B1 level.

The problem with all this plan is that, at least for personally, it makes it hard to express yourself in German but you can understand a lot and it's start.

It should take you a couple of months to get to A2, maybe higher, if you work at it one hour a day, I did it a hella lot more lightly, skipping days and so and still made some progress, depending on your discipline you could become better.

Learn Arabic instead.

Probably a shot in the dark but does any one have this for either Greek or Latin? I've really fallen for the 'start with the Greeks meme' and I'm loving the classical view of things.

Just read translations, starting with the Greeks is fine and all but wasting time on learning dead languages is not necessary unless you want to be a scholar who specializes in these eras.
