First: Check the starter wire
Second: If it seems connected ok, try and directly connect a wire from the battery to the starter and see if it starts.
Third: while trying to start, hit the starter with a FBH (Fucking Big Hammer). Might wan't to use something to reach in there thoug, like a piece of pipe or wood.
If that fails, then pull it out and open her up. I had the same problem a thousand times before. Usually its the starter wire or something similar. When we first got the car we couldn't fix it the usual way, so we pulled the starter and opened it up. It was pretty obvious that the bearings and crushcollars had failed on the starter, preventing it from turning. All it took was 5 euro's at a dynamo revision company and she's as good as gold.
Not bad for a couple of rookies.
