I usually confound "bitch" with "beach", most native americans that i've talked can understand me, but i still fell like my pronunciation is awful and wanna improve it.
Check on youtube some channels with pronunciation videos, you need to decide if you want to learn British or American English (so you don't mix both sounds).
It will only work for few words.... Anyway, just like an "Gaucho" speaking Portuguese is completely different than an "Northeastern", English have a lot of variation on USA, an Texan talking in English is completely different than an guy from Alaska. You can say a lot from an person just by listening him. For example, Barbara4u2c have an central/eastern European accent and she said that she is from Slovenia(confirming my impression); I recommend her channel for people who wanna practice listening because she is funny, beautiful and talk slowly.
Some people say that is impossible to get rid of an accent, but Melania Trump was born in Yugoslavia and is fluent on English, French, Italian, German and Slovenian and she speaks with apparently no accent.
