In the Artscroll siddur this is written very clearly. It would probably be easier for you to use such a siddur and you'll get the "instructions" as you go

Artscroll siddur has instructions, plus lots of halachik notes in a section at the end. They also have a special siddur for women, which focuses on the halachot as they apply to women.

There is also a book by rabbi Menachem nissel called Rigshei Lev, hashkafa and (mostly) halacha about davening, specifically as it applies to women.

I think the Artscroll siddur has a lot of these details written on the pages or in a halachic section at the end.

A broad guideline is to stand up for Kaddish, for Kedusha, and whenever the Aron Kodesh is open. There are exceptions, though.

Another vote for artscroll. I used to have such anxiety about not knowing what to do. I finally got up the guts to share this with someone and they were like duh just look at the siddur (I...um... already had the artscroll English siddur. I was a teenager and it had never occurred to me to actually READ it) and it was a huge lightbulb moment that changed my life. It tells you everything you need to know.

It's different for Sephardim though! The first few shabbatot after we got married, I was the only woman standing for a bunch of different parts.
