The best advice I can come up with is to spend 10 minutes with the student in an open parking lot just going in and out of first gear. First is always the hardest gear to learn. Advise them to err on the side of slow clutch feed and extra gas. It makes things a little jerky but cuts down on stalls. Make sure to let them know that everyone takes time to learn.
After 10 minutes, get out of the car and let them practice on thier own. When they can get in and out of first and second cleanly, try a back road on a sunday. Also, make sure they understand why they have to shift and how the clutch works. I found it helpful to picture what was going on in the transmission. -Andy A.
