Figuring out the clutch was just a single driving lesson. He took me to a road which was basically a long hill with no traffic around. He got me to head up the hill in first gear, then to slowly start depressing the clutch until we stopped moving. Then he got me to just play with lowering the clutch more (we slowly start to roll back), lifting the clutch, adding some more throttle and then holding it on the clutch again, and so on - all while listening to the engine note so I could hear just before we stalled. We spent about half an hour on that hill and by the time we left it I had pretty much mastered holding the car on the clutch.
A looooong time ago I learned to drive.
