Nice! I'm learning German as well. Can you tell me if you used any books/tutorials/apps/classes? Thanks in advance.

Duolingo, normal classes in the beginning. Nowadays mostly speaking to people and watching TV and every once in a while reviewing grammar.

Give it time.

Not OP, but I had great success with learning languages after reading Gabriel Wyner's "Fluent Forever". Don't pay attention to the way he advertises his new app, frankly it does a disservice to the quality of the book. I ended up thinking and gaining much more fluency in my chosen languages after reading his book and using his techniques.
