In normal speech, it's /jɪj'tso/ in IPA ([jиᵉjцó] in traditional Cyrillic transcription). In unstressed syllables, я usually becomes /(j)ɪ/ due to vowel reduction.
But if you pronounce it /jaj'tso/ ([jаjцó]), as written, this would also be OK: it will be understood as extra-careful pronounciation.
N.B. ц /ts/ is a single consonant that starts like t and ends like s.

TIP.... If you come across one of these stupid pronunciation problems, put on a silly voice after twenty attempts. Even if you know it is totally wrong. See what happens.
Not a day goes by without me regretting paying for this. As a free course, brilliant.
