It's not like an automatic where you can just use the brake at low speed and let the engine and transmission do the work for you. At low speed you have to work the clutch, give it some gas if necessary, coast if necessary. You don't want to lug the engine because the oil pressure will drop too low and not lubricate properly, resulting in premature wear. If you have to go so slow that your RPMs drop low enough that you're lugging, clutch in and coast instead, giving it a bump as necessary to keep yourself moving.
