There are so many naughty things i could say just on this subject...but I dont know you so i'll hold back:
When I think of pearls, I think of necklaces...now as far as driving stick? dont stall and push the clutch softly, if confused, shift gears!

if you floor it, the engine will still take 2-3 seconds to catch up. When letting the clutch out dont keep pushing more gas in because itll start to catch up to you and youll get panicked and pop the clutch and kill the car. Easy on the gas until its at a good rev and then easy on with the clutch.
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasy there. Eeeease into it.

When u let your foot off the clutch, make sure you have the gas pedal to the floor to prevent stalling.

I swear I would stab the George Washington bridge if I could. Thought I was gonna say stab you, huh?!? lol *stab*
But srsly, best way to learn imo is to just take the car to an empty parking lot and figure it out on your own. Nobody sitting in the car with you because that can just add to your frustration. Perhaps not the best thing for the poor car but, at least you work at your own pace and don't have to listen to some agitated person try to tell you what to do, because clearly you are doing it wrong and it's so simple why can't you JUST FIGURE IT OUT?!?!
