I’m a beginner to learning Japanese and as English is my only language I’m having trouble figuring out how to sound these out. I’m nearing the end of my hiragana lessons so if there are any other sounds similar to this ahead of me I would really appreciate help with those too.

Unless your life-circumstances force you to speak Japanese, I would personally recommend you forgo sub vocalizing what you read. If you can’t already sound out those characters then its very unlikely that you can grade your own pronunciation correctly and have any confidence in whether or not you’re correct.
