You may not realize it, but you're asking a hard question - there are thousands of trees it could be, and no one website will help you, especially if you're a 'newbie', as too many things will look alike to you if you can't distinguish very fine differences, or appreciate that whole bunches of trees are unlikely to be 'it' because of their location, or growing habits, or unsuitability as bonsai. A picture is really needed, or at the very least a life size sketch or description in real detail (size, color, edge detail, etc. etc.) of the leaves.
