At first you will move very slowly, or even move backwards! Keep at it, pushing your weight forwards. Give yourself a goal - try to go a few feet, and then try and tic tac across the street.
As you practice, pay attention to what your arms, shoulders and hips are doing. Feel free to really swing yourself into the turns. If you fall, get up and do it again. It's best in skateboarding to not stop for hte day after a fall, unless you are really hurt. It's good to get back on your skateboard, if you feel ok, and do a little more.
