congrats on getting the tC and welcome to the site!!!

as for learning stick, it's all in the feel. so the more you do it, the more you'll get comfortable.

the way i teach people new to stick is to start exclusively on flat roads. slowly let your foot off the clutch in 1st gear until the car starts rolling. then gently give it gas. do this many times until you get comfortable with the point at which the car starts to move. then, you can work on easing off the clutch and on the gas simultaneously. the simultaneous method is needed for hills.

as for the rest of the gears, it's on clutch, shift, easy onto the gas.

dont be afraid to stall!

again, the more you do it, the more comfortable you'll get!

if you still need help let us know! good luck!
