What up, I am an English teacher living in Gunma so I can't really give you lessons. But I can give you advice on some ways to get more practice.

For listening I would suggest downloading and installing iTunes to your computer. You need to use the US version of iTunes to get the best Podcasts for practice. When you open the US version of the iTunes store, you will see on the left side menu a link for Podcasts. These are like radio shows for your computer or mp3 player. If you search the language section, you can find many free podcasts for English learning. Or you can listen to other topics like world news or hobbies. There are many different ones so find one that you like. Then you will click the subscribe button. Subscribing to one will give you new podcasts that are added to iTunes every week. The best thing is, it is free. Apple - iTunes - iTunes Overview

As far as reading, I would suggest to you the Hiragana Times. This is a bilingual magazine published by The Japan Times for Japanese and English learners. I would also recommend this to Japanese learners overseas because you can subscribe to the pdf format and download it straight to your computer. Hiragana Times/Latest Issue

Lastly for speaking, you can try using Skype. Skype can be downloaded and used for free like iTunes. You can connect and talk to many people from all over the world. There should be a group for language exchange, but I have never looked for it. Skypeで話そう

Hope this helps you and good luck!
