Answer

To learn 漢字 I use:
- Remember Traditional Hanzi Book 1 by James W. Heisig (you can also find a simplified version).
- Chinese Characters - A Genealogy and Dictionary (web version at http://www.zhongwen.com/).
- ANKI flashcards to do repetitions on the characters I'm learning.

To learn chinese in general:
- I put sentences I like in my ANKI, complete with the audio (if available) and do repetitions in the following way: I read aloud the chinese sentence, listen to the audio, repeat it and then write down the whole sentence.

To reinforce my listening skills:
- I watch A LOT of movies/dramas/shows in chinese, you can easily get access to a whole universe of fresh material by downloading and installing PPS, a software that allows for online streaming.
- I listen to songs I like and learn them by heart.

To reinforce my reading skills:
- I read a lot of mangas translated in chinese and generally books which I already know in english that have been translated (you can check ouy yesasia.com for this kind of stuff).

Hope it's been helpful to you and everybody else :)
