What I'd do is to learn by coding, as others have said already,
problem-sovlving. Another is to study the various references on the
language available online and try the examples found in them. One of my
favorites is
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference
Some things you have to come up with a problem to solve using the
knowledge gained, but I would say that in general, learning stuff by
applying knowledge is one of the most effective methods out there.
But to begin with, don't focus so hard the specialized environments such
as browsers or languages, but on the core language itself.

Hope this helps,
