I dont know what happened, I think it was a defective clutch, but I have no way to prove that.

Default I dont think driving lessons is what i need,
I learned to drive stick from a racer, and I'm pretty sure it wasnt my fault, but what happens, happens i guess. The dealership wants 1300$$ for a new clutch, i'd rather spend the same or maybe a little more on an aftermarket one.
