In British English the phonetic symbol /tʃ/ corresponds to the initial consonant sound in words like "check", and the final one in "catch". It is a voiceless consonant.
While /tʃ/ exists in Spanish, many students will "hear" this sound in words like orange or judge, i.e. without considerable practice, they'll mistake it for /dʒ/, a sound which doesn't exist in Spanish.
