I'm a foreign student here. English reading and listening are not hard to improve but I find that speaking is rather difficult to learn by self. If I encounter a word but do not know the exact pronunciation, what is the easiest way to find it? I have dictionaries but they are Britain-English based.

So is there any CDs, Website, Media, Tools, or other methods to know the American pronunciation of each word I encounter? Dictionary may be good but I think the "real" sound could help me "really" understand what the pronunciation is.

Thank you very much and Happy New Year!
