To make /x/, raise the back of your tongue towards the soft part of the roof of your mouth (the velum) and let air pass through, creating a rough, friction sound. It's like the 'ch' in Scottish 'loch' or German 'Bach'.
This sound /x/ does not exist in English. Closest: Scottish 'loch', German 'Bach', or 'h' in 'aha' (but not the same).
