      honestly. ive tried teaching twich that I can recall and was the most stressful thing for everyone involved. Emily is a good learner though you could see the cog wheels turning and grasping the concept of what the clutch was doing without actually knowing what the clutch does, if that makes sense.

      I don't completely agree, that's the worst possible first introduction to what a clutch does.
      When you are driving the wheels have to be connected to the engine, because the engine drives the wheels. So when you stop the car, the engine would have to stop too. The clutch separates the engine from the driveline so you can stop the car while the engine can remain rotating. And when you get going you slip the clutch so that the car can slowly accelerate to the speed of the engine. When you let the clutch engage too quickly the cars weight will try to choke the engine and it might stall or recover but either way the entire car will jump.

      @@shawnmanson6193laymans term like it helps the gear engage? Understanding how a car works makes driving it easier, don’t treat your friends like idiots.

      @@sombrero4316 This is why you aren't a teacher. Information overload, student gets confused and fucks up. You do not have to understand exactly how things work to drive manual. After they are comfortable you can start adding more information. He explained enough. Explaining that the clutch separates the engine from the driveline so you can stop the car while the engine can remain rotating is so superfluous when teaching a beginner it's insane. Saying you have to hold in the clutch so you can change gears is enough.

    Corvettes have one of the best tran/clutch combos to learn on. Buttery smooth transitions and the engine has enough power that you don't to put much work to get it in to first. Compared to SS Camaro which are rough to shift, the vette is a perfect learners car.

    what she did with brake on and just clutch thats the first thing you should and then try and not stall the engine but keep it pulling forward so you feel the bite point and then go drive

    When I got my license at 16 my grandpa and dad took me to get a car and I just wanted this really nice VW R32 for 11k only 50k miles, I really liked it. Instead they talked me into getting a Wrangler Rubicon on 37's for 19k. I mean, it was an awesome car. I loved it. But to get home I thought one of them would drive it and teach me, nope. They got in my grandpa's truck and left. They said you gotta figure it out if you're going to use it for work and school. I'd driven manual like 2 times in a parking lot so at least I wasn't starting from nothing, I guess but that thing was a handful.

      Getting thrown into the deep end may not be the best way to learn, but it's definitely a quick and surefire way to learn to drive stick. For me, I had just got done practicing in my uncle's car at a parking lot and as we were on the way home, my uncle stopped at a stop sign and got out and told me to switch places with him. I was shittin' bricks and sweating like crazy, but we eventually got home that day.

    That Corvette with all the low end torque is probably a really forgiving car to learn manual in. He didn't teach her where the grab point was though.

      Buy a cheap manual civic and practice. The more you use the clutch the more you will get use to driving manual.

      The sad part is that you'll grow to LOVE it and pretty much all cars will not have the option for manual since most of them are becoming electric.
