Hy! I would like to learn the Russian language by myself. I don't know anybody who could help me. I have to books. I began by learning the letters but I don't succeed in remembering how they are written and neither how they are pronounced. How could I learn it? Are there also some websites that could help me?

Well I have been learning German on my own for a while and from what I’ve seen and experienced I find it much easier to memorize the letters and the sounds they make by writing them down.
After you have those under your belt, try learning how sentences are formed. Once you FULLY understand how to build a sentence AND read letters you can start practicing your reading.
I don’t mean like you kind of have an idea of what the letters sound like, you need to know them!
Memorize them by writing them over and over and over and over and OVER AGAIN!
Gain a good understanding of Consonant Combination’s.
Example:
In German "sch" makes the English sound of "sh"
When you have an "sp" or "st" at the beginning of a word you add the "sh" sound to their pronunciation. So the German word for Sports is "Sport". But because of the "sp" at the beginning, you would say it like this: "sh-port"
THAT is how you teach yourself a new language, you need to get the small things such as above under your belt before you try to speak. Many people have a hard time learning a new language because they don’t know the "why’s" behind what their speaking. That’s why you should learn ALL the grammar before trying to build your vocabulary.
