I am working so am taking twice a week part time.
http://www.ikoma.com.sg/en/jp/n-c/part-basic.html
I self-studied from textbook 10 years ago. Memorized hiragana, katakana, some common vocabs and kanji (but mostly forgotten ). Touched on the basic -masu, -tai, -nasai, etc usages. IIRC, I stopped at shitai, -katta.
Since it was self-learnt, my learning syllabus is not well-structured. Anyhow learnt abit here and there. So to play safe, I just go ahead with basic lessons.

may I ask is your basic lessons Full Time (intensive)?

meanwhile you may want to start to look at other books (Vocab, Grammar, Kanji, JLPT, etc) in Kinokuniya.
For conversation, the key is practice and ability to process in Japanese Language in your brain. Every
