For starting out... I'd just do left foot on the clutch and right foot on the brake and keep it that way until you stop. After a few more weeks of driving, you'll figure out which gears and speeds match up and you can keep the clutch in, but "walk" the shifter through the correct gears, so that if the red light turns green, all you have to do is ease up on the clutch and get on the gas. (practice this a slow speeds first... accidently hitting the wrong gear at a higher speed canpotenionaly cause loss of control... this is why its usually best to leave it in gear while going down a hill)
