Conversational Tutoring

Im not looking to be fluent in Chinese (honestly that seems impossible), but I really want to just be able to have proper conversational skills. My accent and tone use is decent cause I did high school in a foreign (international) school there, but like many students that arrived in their teens (and were lazy) quickly stopped putting the effort in it cause it was so hard.

Would 1 hour, 5 days a week conversational tutoring be worth it, like just talking to a tutor, learning sentences and just talking in chinese. Or is this a futile attempt and there are more efficient ways of picking up on the language again.

Note: Also I know I should learn characters and it would be really helpful, I just really dont want to, but I REALLY want to be able to speak it.
