How did you teach your dog to stay or wait?

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

What techniques did you all use? I am having a hard time with this one. I am trying it with the leash on, and him sitting at my side the way the trainer showed me (he was doing it great for her)
but as soon as I move in front of him and show him the hand signal he lays down!
I think he is getting the signals mixed up and I am pointing for him to lay down. I am getting frustrated on this but I don't want him to know that so I tend to give up.

He sits well and goes down nice but this one is tough!!
