Hi Tara
Try the English Maze. It has some excellent listening resources, particularly in the 'Rooms'.
The 'Accent Room' and 'Listening & Speaking Room' are probably the best for what you are looking for.

There are plenty of free resources out there.
Here's a listening lab that can be used by students stand alone or by teachers in their classes. It has questions that follow the listening as well as script with Java pop-ups to help with difficult words/idioms.

Here's a page with (I count) 64 categories of words with pictures, pronunciation, and spellings.

Try those and see how they work out for you.
