One of the difficulties I see my students have a lot is how to pronounce these sounds that doesn’t exist in other languages. Generally the way that I use to teach them is writing a pronunciation similar to the language they are used to.
For spanish speakers I explain that nh sounds a lot like ñ and for english speakers I explain that lh sounds a lot like li.
