What are these symptoms?

My car does the same thing, remmeber, these cars don't have much torque, my buddy could fully disengage his car in 1st from a stop and will roll for a while before it stalls, gl with that on our cars. Practice makes perfect. Also, when u turn on ur ac or heater, itll be more pronounce.

All you got to do is put more gas in and you should be fine. It occurs with some other cars too if you do what you're doing. Just put more gas in and you have nothing to worry about.

Okie, from the beginning to the end I was trying to help him out. I was pointing out what has to be done in order for it to stop shaking. You basically just told him practice makes perfect and not giving him any pointers. And there you told me I was degrading him

+1 on the idea of getting somebody with a lot of time on a manual transmission to try the car. Symptom 2 has me a little concerned. Sounds like it might be drivetrain lash...something worn in the drive train that causes the transitions between engine accelerating and engine braking to be more violent than they should be.
However, it could just be driving style as others have mentioned. Thats why I'd like to get feedback on your car from an experienced stick driver.

LOL. That could be it. Back to the point, the second symptom is probably because he selects the wrong gear to accelerate. I'm sure we've all experienced it. Furthermore, for the a noob to drive stickshift as smooth as automatic is unheard of.

From the description, it sounds like he might have some extreme aftermarket clutch, like a 6 puck or something. If so, you either replace it or get used to it. #2 does sound wierd to me as well, but still could be bad driver form.
