I am in love with Amy Walker!!! She is just amazing! I watched all her videos and I think the essence of her teachings is that in order to an accent you have to get into the mindset of the culture to which it belongs to.
Another website I find very useful is the Merriam Webster pronounciation page. Especially when you don't realize what the difference between two words is, minimal pairs are immensly helpful to identify those.
I am also very fond of BBC's pronouciation page. It gives you a short and sweet overview of all sounds existing in the English language.
Apart from that I also found Frank's explanation of how you can tell wheter you are pronouncing a letter voiced or voiceless very helpful. If something in your throat vibrates it is voiced.
