That's a very horrible Japanese textbook for English native speakers.

It's obviously not going to be exact but I wanted to make sure that it at least made sense and that I was pronouncing it correctly.

Japanese phonology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
You do know that Japanese is very easy for English speakers to pronounce, right? Except that the syllable distinction is tricky.
Example: Japanese カット ("katto" in katakana)
In Japanese, "katto" will be three syllables (ka - t - to)
In English, "katto" will be two syllables (kat - to)
Be very aware of the syllable distinction.
