i don't have a list just "what worked for me" - just read! Read anything that strikes your fancy!
Do you have a favorite topic or genre? Read the diferent authors who write in that area, the different styles and words will show you words at play.
One thing which helped me was books on tape and CD. I would read a word and have an idea of its usage but no clue how to pronounce it!?!
I will share a guilty pleasure, the tape of "Christmas Carol narrated by Patrick Stewart - it is great fun and reminds us not to forget Dickens for words!
Best of luck in your journey
