And to make a disciple of Christ, the disciple would need to present them Jesus, his salvation and teachings. Then use the Acts of the Apostles and Epistles to explain and extend what Jesus taught (like let's see how the first disciples of Jesus explained and applied his teachings and mission) , as well as the OT.
I'm glad you mention Matthew. I remembered that I read that Matthew was used a lot to make disciples in the first-century church and it is structured as such.
I also have a friend that told me before that he used the Book of John.
I think I'm going to design it around one or two Gospels and use the Apostles writing to extend and explain it, and I would get deeper as needed. That way the disciple would be able to have a clear guide he/she can use to present Jesus to others.
I covered the "How to read" as you mentioned and a little bit on "how to study", but I like the specific tips you mentioned. I'll make note.

Sounds like a plan.
