for �feuille � take the FU of fur + the sound of the letter "e" in the alphabet + the YU of yum
 
for �sur � it is a sound very difficult to pronounce because it is typically French for the letter �u �. If ever you speak German it is like the �� �. We may say that the most possible pronunciation for �sur � could be "sir".
 
hope this is simple and clear enough to help you.
