A good way to start learning, and its the way i teach people, is to not use the gas...just come off the clutch very slow and youll be able to go.
I do the same with my friends... ask amber lol. Any way it took me a whole min, I raced motocross for 4 years proir to getting my licence.

I learned on my dads old 1992 Ford F150 took a few hours if that. It is really easy and a car is even easier

Old guy that owned the house i lived in lived next to me and taught me when i was 8 on an old 1988 Meistro 5spd Diesel....It took me half an hour to learn. that was fun times! Then i hit a brick and it tore off the oil pan and killed the engine.
