If you don't remember the prepositions that require the use of the dative, you may just learn this simple song that, although really silly, will help you remember the correct prepositions:

Aus, bei, mit, nach

aus, bei, mit, nach

seit, von ,zu

seit, von, zu

immer mit den Dativ 

Immer mit den Dativ,
