Also is this transmission soposed to be loud? Like hear shift clanks as i change gears? Or am i messing up my tranny. When i am actually driving and i start out in first. When i get into the very last part of letting out the clutch, its like the car rocks back and fourth. Why?? This dont happen all the time but am wondering what im doing wrong.

All right let me explain to you what I did when I was learning.

Push clutch and put it in first. SLOWLY release clutch to the catch point where the car will start to inch forward. Then press on the gas pedal and release clutch simultaneously. You should be doing this under 1k rpms. The amount you gas is actually not so much.

TBH most ppl can even move the car without even gassing. Heck I can even get into second gear without even using the gas pedal on my car (VW).

Also, the clanking you are hearing shouldn't be right. I think you have to time your clutch release better. I have a gut feeling you are releasing either too fast or too slow.
