Praying, for the Uninformed

Let's get straight to the point:

I converted to Islam a long time ago (~6 years), but have become less religious as time has gone on.My father was Muslim, but died before I ever knew him. I want to become involved in my religion again, and to start praying as normal. I do not live in a Muslim family, and do not live in an area densely populated with other Muslims.

I was once aware of how to pray, when to pray, etc., but have forgotten mostly everything. My questions are this:

1) What is the best way for someone who's not prayed in a long time to start praying again? What are the best resources? 2) Am I meant to pray aloud, i.e., do I have to memorize certain prayers and speak them aloud, or can the process be more "internal"? 3) What advice do you have in general for someone looking to become involved in their faith again?
