Not really something you can teach, it's something you learn overtime how the car behaves. The way you ease up on the gas pedal, or prod it will initiate up/down shifts in auto-mode. Or accelerating then lightly easing up will initiate a shift. Again, you learn it over time an with experience it becomes second nature. It really is a remarkable system once you get in tune with it. In some ways, I feel more connected with a SMG than I do with a rubbery-feeling e90 manual.
