We do a drill on our class where one person starts on his back with an open guard and the other has to pass it. The person on his back cannot close his guard, if he does, he is out of the circle (king of the mat). Do it in time limits 30 secs, 60, whatever you want. try little things. keep your elbows to your knees if he is trying to pass, and dont let him penetrate. slip one leg so your shin goes accross his stomach and your foot is hooked on his hip. I dunno, few things to focus on. Remember to control the head. (you control the head, you control the body). Wrap your legs around his, get under/over hooks. Sorry my post is jumbled but hope this helps a bit.

That's such a broad question to ask - it's like asking "How do I win?".
There's no simple answer to your question because:
*What type of guard are you playing?
*Where are your hands and feet?
*What is you opponent doing?
*What are you trying to do? Stop him from passing, sweep him, get his back, submit him?
My suggestion is to buy a video - Michael Jen's videos are good, or ask your instructor.

Drill not getting passed.
Just isolate that area, you get open guard, partner attempts to pass. When he does, restart.
Use your legs, stay mobile, curl up in a ball.

Ohh, and I believe there are some video clips on royharris.com on how to develop an open guard.
