Looking for any additional advice, though I will share what I have found so far, which is a thorough instruction guide for dog training. All comments welcome!

Hold a treat in front of his nose. Lift the treat up, just above his head, where he could see the treat. He will sit. Praise him and give him the treat.
Sit is the easiest command you can teach a puppy. That is one a novice can do.
I just started telling her to sit, and pushed on her butt, and would reward her with either a treat, or a good girl and pet her and play with her a little.
Edit: I agree with the poster under me, which is why I more leaned on the praise. The treats maybe happened once a day.
The answer above is good, except the ‘treat’ part. Any animal, like children, should be trained to respond to prase and positive reinforcement of good behavior.
Say "Sit BooBoo!" and if it doesn’t sit rub its nose in its own mess. Then rub your nose in it. Then give each other eskimo kisses.
oh yeah, pretty cool one. My cuz had me to read this site, though, where I learned a lot of training basics.

Well I find it quite easy depending on the dog.If the dog is encouraged by food then reward your dog with a treat after saying the comand sit. Start by raising the treat over the dogs had and move it back intill your dog is in the sit position. Reward your dog with a treat and say good dog. It may take a lot of patiance and treats! good luck!!!!!!
Once on animal planet i saw this show where they were training young dogs to do simple tricks, one of them being sitting. They took a treat and put it above the dogs nose and slowly moved the treat back until the dog sat. Or you could try just pushing the dogs butt down and saying SIT, out loud.
