Also in the lot try to if possible practice starting uphill and downhill too. Uphill starts will be the hardest and scariest when you have some Karen in her leased Maserati on your ass at a stoplight. You can also use your mouse clicker ebrake in a sketchy situation to stop from rolling backwards until you feel the clutch start to engage and then release it. Once you get starting down, just drive and drive and drive. The more you drive it'll become second nature. Try your best to be smooth and you'll only improve.
I wish I had a beater to learn on but wasn't worth spending money jut to learn.
