The required duration of time can differ a lot depending on your existing level of German or knowledge of other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in German out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational German classes online.
