And a question I have, how do you get your vocabulary? And is there any online/apps that can help with this?

Do you know about memrise.com? Register there and start learning flashcards. It's free. And not boring. Many people become memrise addicts after a week of constant using it.

For smartphones you can use Anki. It also has Lojban sets.

Here are the links for learning Lojban.
✔ http://www.lojban.org/tiki/wavelessonscontinued - is a popular textbook
✔ http://dag.github.com/cll/ - is the full textbook
✔ http://vlasisku.lojban.org/ - is the dictionary
✔ http://www.memrise.com/topic/lojban/wordlists/ - is a great place where you can learn lojban words online. Just *register* on that website, try several courses and use the one that you like most
✔ http://lojban.org/jboski - automatic grammar check of what you write in Lojban (which is unique among all languages!) with English glossing (i.e. translation).
✔ http://camxes.lojban.org/ - Even better than the previous item. But without glossing.
✔ https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/lojban-beginners - a community this is where you can ask any questions.
✔ http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ckule,jbosnu,jbopre,lojban is a chat where you can make friends and ask for help for learning lojban (in #ckule section)

I am attempting to teach a friend of mine from school how to speak Lojban. Her native language is Russian

 coi la .devin.preitr  
Short note. For Russians we have a separate group http://vk.com/menli.bangu. Alternatively, you can give them my e-mail gleki.is...@gmail.com All the gismu have been translated to Russian by far (a separate Russian dictionary is http://vlasisku.lojban.org/vlasisku.ru/badna). Cmavo are almost all translated, the Wave lessons will be completed soon (according to what I was told by the translator).

, but she basically grew up in a Southern English community, so her thought processes, as it seems to me, are a mixture of the two cultures. A few days ago, I was trying to get her to see how the diphthongs in Lojban are in fact logical, and how the C is logical in the way it is pronounced. I think there was something else she wanted me to ask about, but I can't remember what it is. Anyways, she basically wants to know how the c is logically phonetic, (she's gotten way too used to the English c I'm guessing), but she did observe that the tc makes since if the c makes since, but she cannot grasp the need for the c to have the sh sound
