Default Tail Stall vs. Wing Stall

I've been getting ready for my Comm SEL ride, and one of the things that I want to be proficient on is being able to recognize whether we're in a wing stall or a tail stall (Colgan 3407 anyone?). I was looking for a little help on how to tell the difference between the two as far as behaviors of the airplane go. How do I tell if I'm in a tail stall vs. a normal wing stall, and (most importantly), how to recover from a tail stall if it is one. Thanks in advance everyone.
