When the s is the first letter of a word => the sound is "s" (example : syntaxe)

When the s is the final letter of a word, you have to check for the next first letter, if it's a vowel => the sound is "z" (example : les avions => "les zavions")

When the s is between two letters, then the sound is always "s", except if is it two vowels (example : rose => "roze")

About c, c is pronounced "ke" if there is a, o and u after it, or a consonconsonant.

Examples : café, côté, cuisine, classe.

If it is e, i or y, it is pronounced "se".

Examples : cercle, citrouille, cycle.

Hope it helps.
