Review of what dative means
What makes a dative case? Indirect object/"to whom?" (Ich gebe dem alten Mann eine Fahrkarte; "dem alten Mann" is the indirect object, while the "Fahrkarte" is the direct job that is being acted on. You'd ask yourself, in this case: "Who was the direct object (eine Fahrkarte) given [verb] to?" - The man)

 * Decide: sein or haben? Sein is a change of a physical condition/location (Point A --> Point B), while haben is for everything else.
 * Conguate based on decision.
 * Pay attention to if the verb is weak, strong, or mixed.

Two way prepositions
Either destination/movement towards a destination (accusative) or location/no movement towards a destination (dative). TIP: Use wohin (where to) with accusative as it talks about a movement towards a destination. Use wo with dative as it talks about a location/the item in question already being there.
