Since 2013, I've been using the British or the New American Streamline book bundles, depending on my students' needs. Each level contains 80 units, with a vocabulary list. For grammar, of course, I follow the units, which particles should come, but I always explain it myself using simple, situational language, aiming to be clear for my students. And there is always HOMEWORK after each class. The student has to complete grammar exercises and learn the unit word by word, by heart.
Why by heart? – Because when you memorise complete sentences, you learn the structure itself, not just the words. And next time you want to speak, you don't search for words to build the sentence—you say it automatically. So, please, no complaining about the homework—it's a MUST.
The students have several exams: a mini-exam after every 20 units, a mid-exam after 40 units, and a final exam after completing the book—all 80 units, including grammar.

Unfortunately, there is no shortcut to learning a language. We have to work hard to reach the goal. If you're ready, you know what to do!
