Lucas Kern's method is highly recommended due to its efficacy and logic. You must think like a German linguistically in order to speak German fluently. Your brain needs that. The best way to learn a new language is the same way as a child learns a language - without analyzing or memorizing grammar rules and vocabulary lists. You need to keep listening to the sound of a native speaker, imitating and repeating what you hear until you internalize the language. In Kern's words, "You need the repetitions to save the word order and grammar in your brain." Follow Lucas Kern's fun and motivating lessons with a cheerful and positive attitude over several months (less time if you already know some German) will actually help you to speak fluent German, believe it or not. To begin with, you will love learning German via a funny mini story about a little snail: eine kleine Schnecke.
