One very good web site I'd recommend for anyone wanting to learn a language who doesn't have easy access to a native speaker is:
http://www.edufire.com
This is a site which provides "video conferencing" facilities and hooks up students with tutors all over the world. All you need at the most basic level is a microphone on your PC. A webcam is useful, but optional. I've used it to have lessons with several different tutors, and it really does work extremely well.
