Is it a slice or a hole? Slices are harder...

If it's not too big and not gaping open, stick a standard inner tube patch on the inside. Doesn't need to be big, it only has to be airtight not structural.

I've had success with car tyre plug patches, sticky worm repair kits and normal tube repair kits. Depends on the size of the hole. The secret to all is surface preparation.
