+1000 to this!
Learn re-engagement after corner, with enough speed to cruise through corners for right now. There is plenty of room in that last statement for further instruction that is best done with an experienced co-driver, not forum boards, FWIW.
Don't sweat riding the clutch (as long as you are at full depress/disengagement and not riding on the clutch at the point where it just barely engages). There are not many clutches that are in need of just a new TO bearing. Listening to 20 years of Click-n-Clack have taught me that one is an old throwback driver's ed rule of thumb.
