As orose said, first gear. It's a low speed manouver hence first gear. Set the engine first, give it some revs, don't worry about it being a bit loud, and slip the clutch a bit (sadly it's your own and not a training schools but oh well!). Then use the back brake to control your speed. If the engine is bogged down, pull the clutch in a bit more. If too fast, bit more rear brake, too slow, bit less brake.

Key is keeping your head up, as if you look down, you'll end up putting a foot down. So eyes up and crank your vision right around to help you turn. You'll be doing figures of eight like a pro.
