Can anyone from here teach me how to drive manual transmission?

Can't be taught over internet.

basics:
the third pedal over to the left moves two sandpaper-y disks apart when you press it in. that is the clutch.
the gears are always spinning. the lever locks different gears to the input/output shafts so power is transmitted from them. this mechanism has extra clutch-like things that synchronize shit before the gears engage. if you try to shift before things aren't synchronized it'll feel like you can't get the lever in. if you have problems shifting, make sure the engine speed is in the ballpark for that gear and your road speed (ie: 20mph in 2nd gear is 2000 RPM)

starting:
if you try and run the engine while the car is stopped an the disks are locked together it'll stall because it doesn't produce enough power at low RPMs to move the car, so you have to use the pedal to slowly rub the disks together until the car has some momentum before fully engaging them. you might also have to give it some extra gas while doing it depending on the car and whether or not you are on a hill.
shifting:
clutch in, shift into desired gear just as engine revolutions begin to reach desired range and then clutch out when they're nearly exact
same thing for downshifting except you press the gas pedal to raise the revs


DO NOT DOWNSHIFT IN CORNERS
UPSHIFT IN CORNERS WITH THE GREATEST CARE
BURNOUTS CAN DESTROY YOUR CLUTCH
THE CLUTCH MAY SLIP AGAINST ITSELF WHEN PROVIDED WITH EXCESSIVE POWER ON ONE END AND EXCESSIVE RESISTANCE ON THE OTHER. IF THIS HAPPENS TOO OFTEN THE CAR WILL BECOME UNUSABLE UNTIL YOU BUY A NEW CLUTCH.
now you know how to drive stick enjoy
>>
move the gear stick in whatever direction you want when you hear the engine is about to explode while holding down the clutch and horn
thank me later
>>
to get the car started put the stick in R (for run) and step on the left and right pedals at once, and then unstep on the left pedal really fast

Method 1:

Step 1: get shitty car w/manual
Step 2: have someone drive you out to middle of nowhere (with someone else in another vehicle)
Step 3: They leave you with the manual shitbox and the only way to get home is to learn how to flick some stick.

Seriously, its easier to learn by yourself too, theres no pressure.

Method 2:
Step 1: Star car and (on level surface) put in reverse
Step 2: Release the brake and AS SLOWLY AS POSSIBLE lift the clutch up while looking to the side.
Step 3: watch for the car to start rolling backwards and listen to the engine drop.
Step 4: continue releasing the clutch until all the way out. You're now in idle speed reverse!
Step 5: Do it again, but this time add a little throttle when you see the car start to move AND lift off the clutch a little faster when you do.
Step 6: NOW do the same thing, but in 1st gear. It is possible to get the car rolling without any throttle if you can lift off the clutch slowly enough. but as with reverse look out the window and watch for the car to start moving,
-Also note where your clutch pedal is when you first see the car moving and try and remember that.

Only use method one to basically get your muscle memory down so you know where your clutch engages (when the car moves and the revs dip) You should slowly be able to release the clutch faster and smoother with practice

Combine both methods for profit

1st gear is between 0-30 kph
2nd for 30-60
3rd for 60-90
4th for 90-120
5th for 120-160+
if you have a 6th gear thats like a universal gear where u can launch/cruise on

as for the clutch, make sure you kick it all the way to the back as hard as you can and select your desired gear, remember don't let go of the clutch until you rev it up to at least 6k rpm, then quickly release the clutch

its quite easy once you're used to it, same method applies to the reverse gear

if you feel it's bumpy or 'loud' (geez just get a new cat converter!), its perfectly normal for a novice to go through that stage

be careful! adjust your mirrors and make sure you're in a comfortable position
