There's a great trick to the difference between a sin and a shin (and my spellings are probably wrong too, so I mean the two characters at the end of the aleph-bet that have three 'prongs' sticking up and the difference is the dot above them).
"A sin is never right".
Thus, the dot will be on the left side of a sin and the right side of a shin. And if I remembered it wrong, hopefully a better Jew will correct me ;)
Did you learn the aleph-bet tune to sing its 'alphabet'? It could help. ~Amanda
