Default Teaching pronunciation and improving listening skills

Hello everyone,

I'm teaching an intermediate level student at the moment who is able to speak, read and write at an intermediate level but who has problems understanding spoken English. I know that we need to work on her pronunciation to improve her listening skills but am having a bit of trouble finding exercises for her to do.
Does anyone know of a course book that is helpful for linking, devoicing, flapping, elision etc...? I have found Cambridge's English Pronunciation in Use with CDs on Amazon but I would be grateful for any other ideas or information. I have not yet bought the Cambridge book and would be interested in hearing from anyone who has used it before.

Thanks!
Louanne
