Mostly, I have taught myself vocabulary through tedious looking up of words. That method has not taught me to listen-understand. Besides, it's boring to look back and forth between a text and a dictionary (or Google Translate or wordreference.com), and I have to look up the same word twenty times before I finally memorize it. For you to "up your game", you have to switch methods to a communication based method. This method maximizes the number of minutes per lesson that you are talking to one, two, or three classmates.
