All of those *cough cough* systems are the same thing to me. Money makers. That's all.

What I did, was to translate a novel from English, the foreign language, to Spanish, my native language.

It took me, I always say, one year to realize that I had no real problems with English, just continue "practicing". In reality I was ready like in 8 or 10 months without realizing that was doing far better than what I was giving credit to myself for it.

I came to this conclusion because one day I realized, I was retaining without problem the meaning of a new word I would encounter and not forgetting the word the day after or so, and being "reminded" of its meaning several times after that.
