Spanish alphabet pronunciation is actually rather simple. The Spanish alphabet is called el abecedario (ehl ah-beh-seh-DAH-ryoh)
See how similar it is to English? ah beh seh, as opposed to a b c. The letters of the Spanish alphabet las letras españolas (lahs LEH-trahs ehs-pah-NYOH-lahs) are very similar to those in English.
