My problem is the clutch shifting. Im a beginner and have no one to learn from so is there a site or book that tells you how to properly ride a motorcycle

yes, there's a book. A Twist of the Wrist 2 by Keith Code. read that before you start riding or before you even take the safety course.

the first couple chapters are focused on throttle control, which involves clutch/shifting stuff; that'll get easier with practice but it's good to read something and get a goal to improve on. it says it's for road racing but it's not a 'race-only' view, most of it applies directly to street riding; and the high performance riding mindset as far as operating the bike is the same either way.
