Learning a foreign language is best accomplished by immersing yourself in the language and culture. Listening to Spanish, reading Spanish and conversing in Spanish are essential to your success.
You can find lots of resources on the internet or your local library or bookstore. If possible, you should befriend a native speaker of Spanish.
No one course or method works for everyone, so I never suggest one. As you encounter difficult-to-understand concepts, come here with your questions.

Good day.
I would recommend using whatever tools available. I am using Collins books. There is one for conversation, vocabulary, verbs and grammar. These can help you become good in reading and writing. Also, you can practice this by writing with people on the internet.
Personally, I find speaking/listening a lot harder, but I haven't really practiced. There are loads of websites and games that come with audio. And of course you can try to find a Spanish friend. Unfortunatley, I have none.
So yeah, I would start with learning pronunciation. It's not very difficult for an English speaker. Afterwards, learn the basics from there and build up.
