Answer 2

You can skate in a line.  That''s a good start.  Then learn to turn.  Then to do a 180 (lift the nose of the board up and turn the board around) do it without moving first then while moving.  Then learn to do same thing but all the way around 360.  Then learn to lift up the back wheels, spin the board on the front wheels so you still moving forward but goofy foot (your right foot forward, not the left).  Practice skating goofy foot straight and turning.  Then learn to manual (nose up and skating forward, like a wheelie).  

Then learn to ollie (this is hard, I've been trying for like 45 days over two years and can only jump the back wheels two inches off the ground and not consistently).  Then learn to drop in.  Those are all the basic manuevers.  The rest are variants of these.
