it goes thru all the gears but cannot seem to find the reverse slot....there is no slot to pull the shifter down into if you know hwat I mean.

If I am in nuetral. I can go to 5th gear, but cannot find the hole for reverse. I mean its not a big deal and my teacher will look at it tomorrow, but what do you guys think>?

there's no special trick to reverse. simply over all the way to the right and back. bam reverse. some times you gotta do 3rd to reverse, or start to roll forward or back to get into gear

Reverse is almost always easier to get into if you cycle through some other gears first then immediately into reverse. I do this all the time as a personal rule anyway on my older cars - never try to just immediately go into reverse, always cycle through the gears first.
