Best thing to do in your situation is read soc.culture.esperanto (not
for the discussions, but for the Esperanto content), and try joining
#Esperanto on your local IRC server and trying to carry on a
conversation, or find some people in ICQ and strike up a conversation. 
Tell them you're a native English speaker (presuming here) and that
you're just learning; most will be glad to help you along.

There's also an audio tape version of the Teach Yourself series, which
may or may not be helpful to you.
