I'm a little concerned that you can't tell a major from a minor chord by ear. That's a pretty significant difference. If you are trying to learn by ear and cannot make that difference out, you may have a rough row to hoe.
All the practice in the world won't help if your ears can't give you the feedback you need.
I think what you should do in this case is find a piano and sit down and play or have somebody else play the chords and SEE the difference and let your ears and your eyes work together to get the differences.
If you choose to work with the guitar, don't play the whole chord to start. Play the 1, the 3, and the 5 only and get a feel for chords. Move the 3rd down a half step and notice how the chord goes from happy to sad.
Hint: the E chord is perfect for this.

That should get you started.
