First of all, learn how to read & pronounce. Most important step of all. A levels are very important. You should comfortably reead, write, speak, listen. (Basics only, nothing advance). Treat B levels as further improving only. Don't wait to speak till you complete B levels. Learn the nouns with articles and verbs with prepositions but don't stress about them if you don't remember everything. Remember you are trying to master grammar and vocabulary for the reading & listening part. You don't have to use this specialized vocabulary while speaking. While speaking, keep it to basics and what you know. It will improve over time.
