If you find novels easier, you can try finding older novels online using the Aozora Bunko and then using the Rikai plug-in. Otherwise, the quickest way to look stuff up is probably going to be an electronic dictionary. And then, of course, just building up your vocab.

For differences in gendered usage, about the only thing that will make it easier is just going to be experience. Watching dramas definitely helps some students. There are books out there that detail the difference between particles and formal/informal and gendered speech, but I haven't come across something that put that all together in a simple package. _Dirty Japanese_ by Matt Fargo is a fun one, though, and might provide a start.
