As you are standing in front of the car looking down at the engine, starter is on right hand side of engine. Disconnect battery first. Disconnect wires from starter, undo starter bolts, remove starter. Starter and solenoid all come off in one piece, starter will only come off and go back on one way. Tercel starters are a gear reduction type starteer and are pretty reliable, what usually goes wrong with them is the conact points inside the solenoid, which are replaceable. Do you have a automotive electrical rebuild shop in your town? They would have parts. If you are up for the task of taking your starter apart yourself this is a easy fix. I have over 200,000 miles on our 84 tercel with only one starter fix.
