by far the best way and the only real way to get fluent, you can do all the courses you want, and you will still be lost if you try to get in a real conversation at normal speed in real life, immersion is the only way to get the brain to click over
I took years of french courses and not anywhere close to fluent, but I spent about 3 months learning spanish and then immersed myself with spanish only speakers (no english) and I am much more fluent in spanish than in french....
going to the country you want to speak the language, and avoiding english at all times possible (even if you are with bilingual people) is the best
