When I trained Sophie I timed her. When we first started it was every hour. (Now at seven mths she goes every three) I would take her outside to her pee pad on the porch and stay until she went. Don't give them free range of the house until they are trained so you can keep a close eye on them. Everytime Sophie would try to go potty in the house I would catch her and take her outside and tell her to go peeps on her rug. That is just the phrase we use you can think of your own. Even if you are not going to use the pads my vet suggested to still just use a small area of grass so they learn what their there for. With the pooping it was basically the same thing except it is easier when they are little if you keep them on a regular feeding schedule you can usually judge when they will have to do that. It was easy to tell when Sophie had to go poops she runs back and forth forever before she goes. It is pretty funny. I hope I have helped. Good look and be patient it can be done. Let me know how things go.
