I learned on a stick, and when I dream about driving, I'm always in a car with manual transmission. Before I was allowed to apply for my actual driver's license, my folks made me stop at a light on a steep uphill and then proceed on green without stalling. It took me 3 months of practice, but in the end, it paid off.
By the way, I learned to drive in a cemetary, which did have the intended effect on me. I didn't do nearly as much stupid stuff in a car as a lot of my peers.
