A genotype is the actual genes, the actual alleles. Like TT Tt and tt ( dominant / recessive) The phenotype is the physical characteristics that you can actually see. The dominant alleles will represent the characteristic. So If Big T = brown eyes little t = blue eyes And the allele is Tt. <--- this is the genotype. But the phenotype is brown eyes ( because their is a dominant present. Another example : tt <--- genotype. Phenotype is blue eyes because there are two recessive traits. (this is the only time the recessive trait is the phenotype...when both are lowercase)

genotype is the expression of the traits using alleles. phenotype is the trait that goes with each combination of traits. So there can be different genotypes but same phenotypes.
Example: Note that this doesn't include partial dominance.
Flower color
White ( Dominant) YY and Yy
Yellow (Recessive) yy
As you can see there are three combinations of symbols, which are the genotypes but there are only two traits or phenotypes.
another example
Flower color and height:
Dominant - white, tall
recessive - yellow short
White and Tall - YYSS, YySS, YYSs, YySs
White and Short - YYss, Yyss
Yellow and Tall - yySS, yySs
Yellow and Short - yyss
This time there are 9 genotypes but only 4 phenotypes.

Genotype is the set of allelles (combination of genes you posses)
lets say BB is the dominant form
you would have Brown eyes, if you have the genotype Bb (heterozygous [means different]) you will still have the phenotype of Brown eyes, but if you had genotype bb, you would have the phenotype bb.
I am assuming you are doing highschool genetics, so genotype is the variation of the gene you have (alleles) and the phenotype is the observable characteristic.
Hope that helps

A genotype is the internal, coded part, whereas a phenotype is the physical - anything that is observable.
For example, the phenotype of a red rose would be - red. The genotype would be the internal coding that makes it red.

GENOTYPE!!
it is d gene complement of an individual it remains same thruout d life and cannot b studied directly(i.e can b known thru d studies of its ancestor offsprings etc). Genotype is not affected by phenotype and in a given environment individuals of similar genotypes produce offsprings of similar phenotype
eg tallness is reported as TT and Tt
PHENOTYPE!!
It represents d external makeup of d individual and it may change with time and environment
phenotype can b known thru direct observations
individuals with different phenotypes mostly have diff genotypes
