I'm having a little trouble in Vocabulary Lesson Chapter 3.
The word is がっこう and I haven't been able to make the sound work on this site to be able to hear it. I've been pronouncing it "Gatsukou" but when I researched on this word I found that it's actually "Gakkou".
Why question is why is it "Gakkou"? I know:
が = ga
っ = tsu
こ = ko
う = u
But "Gatsukou" is incorrect. Could someone please explain in detail why it is "Gakkou" instead of "Gatsukou"?

chisai-tsu (little tsu) is used like a "pause" between the symbols to express the double "k" from "ko" in "gakkou" がっこう。。。something like that.
