The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your available level of English or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, write using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try as many as possible ways to think and speak in English out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational English classes online.
