i was suppose to start teaching my lil bro how to drive a stick.

is it bad for the car if he keeps stalling or revs too high? probably yes right?

you should be alright. No damage done what so eva. Now if you rev the engine to about 5 k and then do the same........thaat will give you lots of problems. You can brake the drive line, rear axle and many many other things.
