If you're learning Spanish for example, there will be loads of communities on the internet to interact with. You can find them everywhere (especially in Spanish), and try to communicate with people. You don't have to go and translate everything, you can simply observe as you grasp the basics.
YouTube videos help a lot too. Not actual language teaching videos, but rather videos that are (for example) in Spanish themselves. Vlogs for instance. You can then take a look at the comments section, in which people will talk about the video, making it easier to understand them.
Obviously, this will feel more like having fun, rather than learning. Which is a great bonus!
I would recommend doing this while you are already following a course. Though this does help, it doesn't replace studying the proper way.
