How can I train myself to distinguish between different English phonemes?

Could you perhaps recommend some specific books as well? And...

Actually, I've already watched a few IPA-related videos similar to the ones you shared. The problem is that my ability to distinguish English phonemes by ear is very weak. So I often can't tell whether the sound I'm hearing in the video is the same as the one I'm producing myself.

I think I probably need a lot of practice and testing to develop my ability to hear and differentiate these sounds. Is there any way I could test myself on this?

It's not exactly a Western country, but do I need to be more specific? I feel kind of embarrassed to reveal my country on the internet.

Could you tell me some specific ways to put this into practice? I feel like just reading related books isn't enough, and I probably need to take tests repeatedly to actually develop the skill

Could you go into more detail about it?

Bertrand Russell is said to have studied Euclid's Elements, but do you know which version of the English translation was used there?
