What is the best way to learn a second language? (Part 2)

This is the second part of a articles' series about keys to learn a foreign language effectively. My purpose isn't put rules but reflecting about this topic. After all, I'm only a young person interested in learning other language, not a specialist in the area. In the first article I said gave three tips that seems seem/are useful for me: to dedicate enough time, to be patient and constant, and to keep your own learning speed. Now, I will talk about how to have having a purpose and interest can help you.
There is something essential if you want study according to the first two keys(?) above: PURPOSE. Purpose is to be being clear about what you want from learning a second language. It may be for school or work reasons. Nevertheless, I think the best purposes are the personals personal ones, those that come from inside, like to learn learning for curiosity or pleasure. In my case, I decided to apply myself to learn English for the opportunities to gain information (correct, but 'to learn' sounds more natural). I could describe myself like a philomath, a lover of learning. And today English is the main language used in research. Actually, a lot of the things I've learned, I couldn't assimilate if I can't couldn't read English. On the other hand, I like English because it seems elegant, in addition of the large benefits that it gives you in academic and work settings.
A good purpose can give you another thing helpful helpful thing to successfully accomplish successfully the challenge: INTEREST. With this word I want mean the willingness to learn. Here is the importance to have, not only an appropriate purpose, but a good method of study. I remember that one of the best ways to become better with English was singing. So I could practice reading, listening and speaking in a funny manner. And I could say the same about watching movies, traveling, to meet meeting foreign friends and talking with them, and to doing any other activity that like you like and lets you practice with your target language.
In short, those are the best ways to learn a second language. So, this is my plan to learn English: I will dedicate about two hours per day to this language doing activities that I enjoy, like those I said before. I hope this article had been pleasant and useful for you. Equally, I'll be happy if you leave a comment or correction that will make me better.

<em>this was great! especially since it is such a long note. i just made some minor changes. my only suggestion is to study when to use infinitive vs. gerunds (to meet vs. meeting). other than that, i really enjoyed reading this. </em>
