Coasting and hypermiling only meant for experienced drivers. Those learning how to drive, please avoid using it.

I have this habit of coasting in gear in situations like above. However the instructor told me to use the brakes first and disengage the clutch only at the last moment.
I keep the vehicle in the appropriate gear for the current speed (I change gears while coasting but do not release the clutch unless I had to push the gas peddle) so there is no problem with the control of the vehicle. I can apply gas in an instant if I had to. I find this method helps me to handle the vehicle very smoothly.
Is there anything wrong with my method? Thank you.
