    It helps when most of the vowels are the same and most other letters match their English counterparts lol.

    In case you get the urge to learn sooner:

    Here are some quick refs for consonants and vowels in English (RP = received pronunciation (a standardized form of English from the UK), GA = General American). Wikipedia pages for specific English dialects (e.g., Australian English) also contain a bunch of word/IPA pairs. Here are audio charts for vowels and consonants.
