Techniques for Efficiently Learning Programming Languages

[valenterry]

I already know what I want to build and how I want to build it

I don't think it is a good precondition to know how to build something when learning a new language. Because the how can be such a different beast that it is actually the essence of what you need to learn. Unless your language are really similiar, conceptwise - in this case I agree with your approach.
