How do you set flatware on a table?

 Utensils are used from the outside, moving in. So salad fork and soup spoon go on the outside.

Forks go on the left of the plate, spoons and knives on the right. Coffee, tea, and dessert utensils go above the plate.

So from left to right across the setting, you’ll layout: a salad fork, dinner fork, plate, steak knife (if using), dinner knife, soup spoon. If using a teaspoon and dessert fork, place the dessert fork closest to the top of the plate, and the teaspoon above it (pointing in the opposite direction).
