I may not necessarily be the best person to answer your question as I'm
only a novice language learner, but I've been learning Spanish on DuoLingo
[0]. I'm not sure if it teaches conversationally, but it is cost-free and
fun! They claim it is effective, and also have values of opening up global
opportunities through English proficiency. It was started by a Duke
alumnus, so what's not to like?

In fact, I recommend it to everyone, there are so many languages to learn
on Duo! And even if you're not interested in learning a language, you
should definitely watch the duocon talk by Sohla El-Waylly [1] and learn
how to make tapioca cheese puffs; you won't be disappointed! (there were
other talks about language-related things too)

My esteemed listmates
I’m trying to help a patron learn English conversationally as Portuguese is
her native language.
She’s tried CDs, DVDs and books but learns best conversationally.
Has anyone found a good resource for learning English conversationally when
English is not your native language?
Online?
Meetup group online?
Thanks so much.
Charles.
