Spanish vowel's pronunciation differs from english basically in that the vowel sound is a simple sound and it changes a little or nothing while in a word.
Here are the aproximate sounds:
"a" is pronounced a english "a" in "bath"
"e" is pronounced as english "e" in "bed"
"i" is pronounced as english "i" in "fit"
"o" is pronounced as english "o" in "fog"
"u" is pronounced as english "oo" in "good"
The sounds of the vowels remain the same no matter its position in the word. So, in the words "cara", "garganta", "paz" the "a" will sound equal always.
There are a few exceptions, but I prefer to focus here on the generals.
So, when you here a word in spanish you may spell it more easily knowing it. It has worked for many friends and I thought it would be useful for more people.
Good luck!!
