The vowels are generally A as in fAther, E as in Elephant, I as in Igloo, O as in bOther, U as in mOOn.
AE and OE sound something like dAY. If you try making the E sound you notice the shape of your mouth is similar, but we tend to close off a bit on AY, which you don't want to do so much in Latin. Watch the video:
