Wouldn't worry about it too much, most of the instructors can't pronounce the words properly either.

Sums up my experience of "foundation" schools.

Did seven years of Jitsu (total training), and there is no rhyme or reason to the instructors' pronounciation. You want real stuff? Ask a Japanese person.

It's largely irrelevant in Jitsu, tbh, and besides at Orange 3, you don't learn anything interesting anyway.
