It’s relatively easy. Requires minimal coordination and can be learned pretty fast.
If you drive a stick in a hilly city, make sure to the car has this kind of parking brake, or hill assist.No. I taught myself. Takes practice though. The hardest part was having to be stopped on an incline and then starting up again.
It is not hard. If you do try to drive stick. Start off with practicing on how to get the car moving forward by just letting the clutch out. No gas just slowly let the clutch pedal out and get a feel for where the clutch engages and the car starts to move. Once you have that down, then start working on giving it gas as you let the clutch out.Always wanted to learn.

People always focus on trying to give it gas while releasing the clutch pedal and then they stall the car. Take it one pedal at a time and it will be easier.

Just do it and don t listen to anyone who will tell you it s not worth it. It's like sex with or without a condom. You will NEVER feel your car as well in an automatic.Always wanted to learn.
We have valet drivers at work that can't drive stick now. We have an old stakebed truck that I have to move for them every once in awhile.If you're in the US, the most difficult part will be finding a vehicle with a stick shift. There are very few sold anymore.
