There are several things you can do.
1. The BBC website has an excellent section for people learning English. They have recorded many short articles and provided transcripts. A similar site is for National Public Radio from the United States, though their material is more advanced. Read the transcripts first, and make sure you know the vocabulary, and then listen to the recordings.
2. You need a good grammar book and a good dictionary. Make sure your grammar book has the answers to the exercises, so you can check your work.
3. These exercises will only help you read and understand spoken English. They won't help you write or speak. For that, you really need a teacher. This is especially true for speaking, as it is (in my opinion) impossible to learn a correct accent for any language without hearing it and being constantly corrected. The only substitute is to download recordings in English and repeat them over and over again, trying to imitate the accent. It is more enjoyable, however, to work with someone on these exercises.
I hope this helps.
