Phonetic focus is a fantastic free resource for learning about phonetics from Cambridge English Online. Using a collection of Flash-based games (the hangman, pelmanisms, puzzles, quizzes, mazes...) you will improve your ability to recognize and produce the various sounds of English and associate them with their phonetic symbols.

The BBC Learning English Pronunciation Tips site is another wonderful resource. The site features videos on all the sounds of English as well as Flash-based interactive activities and quizzes. All the videos can be downloaded along with posters giving examples of each sound. You can also listen to three radio programmes from 2005 on the topic of pronunciation. The full script and audio examples are available to download.
