Driving lesson query?

I want to know whether its me and i feel i am absolutely awful driving or not i have only had 2 x1 hour lessons so far with no past experince with driving cars before, the problem i have is on my first lesson i did fairly fine but nerves have now overcome me, on my second lesson however i cannot get used to the clutch system when getting ready to change gear. The clutch and gear change are my crutial flaws and i wonder whether i am ever going to get used to the system, i am concentrating on ghetting these flaws of mine correct but now i am focusing so hard on mastering this technique i find myself concentrating more on that than looking where im going which i know i must be able to change gears without looking at the gear stick. Will i learn over time or should i go to an automatic car for the rest of my driving lessons. I am aware that once you adapt to an automatic car its almost impossible to drive a manual car in the future. How long if any length of time should i wait before swapping to an automatic car. Are there many people that experince the same problem i do?
