Tsere is a vowel-sign in Hebrew which is typically transliterated as e (with or without diacritics). In Beginning Biblical Hebrew, Holmstedt and Cook teach pronouncing it as ey as in grey. Others will tell you it should be pronounced like the e in bet. You can watch a little YouTube video about that here.
In modern Hebrew, it is often pronounced identically to segol.
If the Hebrew renders correctly, here is a tsere beneath a bet: בֵ.
