How to stop a manual car on a hill?

Hi I've recently passed my driving test but ive had lessons and learnt how to drive in about a year. I didnt really learn hill stops as there werent many hilly roads in the driving test route. I went on a hill the other day and i didnt know what to do so my car just stalled after i moved as i was stationary on the hill. I then had to tell someone else to take it up the hill for me. Any idea on the best way to do this as ive got a manual car.

I presume you mean how to start a car moving up a hill?

You should have the handbrake on, so select 1st or reverse gear (depending which way you're going) but keep your foot down on the clutch. Floor the accelerator (with practice you won't need to be as aggressive but for now go with that) and slowly lift off the clutch until you feel the car start to move. Then release the handbrake and you're off.

Some would say use your handbrake but I don’t bother with that.
On a hill, I’d get the biting point and hold it still. Then foot on accelerator , and that’s it.
When I first started driving, I’d proper rev the accelerator so that I don’t stall or roll back. It was be loud and might annoy other drivers, but I decided that it was better than stalling when I’m the first in a long queue at the traffic lights. You will get used to it.

oh ok thanks how much practice do u think ill need as i dont want the other drivers horning at me. I also heard that if u hold the clutch for too long and press the gas pedal simultaneosly it is not good for the car.

Firstly thanks for your reply. If i get to the biting point will i need to press the brake just in case rolls back. When the accelerator is pressed, i heard that it is not good for the car and can maybe damage the internal structure of the car. How much practice do u think i need as i passed my test in january.

When moving off, it is best practice to have the handbrake applied initially, Set the revs a little higher than usual - you will need more revs and more momentum to move against gravity if you're trying to ascend a hill. Gently lift the clutch to the bite until the car engine starts to pull, remove the handbrake and apply more or less revs if necessary until you start moving properly. You can then lift off the clutch completely and drive as normal.
