So, the first concept of RP is to have a reason for everything. Whether it be to fight, to learn, to talk...you are your character, and you must take his intentions or motivations are your own.

Deriving off of this, may I know why you want to learn Raiton?

Ohh okay understood..

And I want to learn raiton because I feel like it is one of the most destructive forces in nature and to be able to weild and harness that power for my use would be perfect knowing that I like to destroy and cause damage but also like appearances which raiton usually seems to have.

Good answer! I like it! Honest and full of enthusiasm, ahaha.
You are correct. Unlike Water, which tends to flow, or Earth, which tends to mold itself, Lightning could be much like Fire, where both are wild, and quite destructive, as you said, but of course, it does take a certain bit of practice and experience to wield them properly.

Now, let's start with the very basics.
What might be the weaknesses and strengths of Lightning, and how might you utilize them?

Weaknesses:
As ive stated lightning is very destructive so damaging yourself and comrades by wielding it improperly.
Since lightning has high speed your body need to be in to physical form to be able to see and keep up while using raiton jutsu.
Weakness is wind.

Strengths:
Strength over earth.
Can be used to temporarily immobilize enemies.
Can be used to raise speed, reflexes, strength, etc.
Piecing attacks as well as ranged.
Can be used with suiton to enhance damage given, or range.
Can be used along with weapons.

Can't think of any more at the moment but will update my list as I see fit.

Ah, no, that's great enough for me! You covered a lot - in fact, we'll go into more detail as we progress.

So...*makes a few handseals and it begins raining*
Take up some of the water into the palm of your hands please.

*places hands in the water and releases a small concentrated amount of Lightning Chakra*
Tell me your response and reaction and how you think Lightning chakra would flow.

*i jump back a little cause ive never felt lightning chakra and it felt like a jolt of adrendaline that can be activated at will. It feels like a rush of life that in that moment I felt like I can much more than ive ever dreamed.*

I think lightning chakra overall would flow as easily as life does, would flow with a tingly feeling as if you were about to do something dangerous and your body gets naturally nervous. Would vary between people as in their situation or life changes but overall the feeling and rush I think would never change.

Wow. o_o That has got to be one of the best explanations I've read so far.
It gives me quite the nervous feeling indeed - kind of wild and uncontrollable, very different from Water or Earth.
So, taking your amazing words and description of Lightning, could you recreate that aspect with your chakra? Try and manipulate your chakra in such a way so that you make Lightning bolts jump across the palms of your hand.

*okay... Clears mind, begins to breath slowly, and tries to feel the flow of life and thinks of a time where my body has felt a rush of energy and tries to recreate that moment in my mind. I try to mold my chakra and concentrate the flow towards my palms to discharge some kind of spark and fail. I keep trying but keep failing. I turn to sensei and ask why? I also ask sensei what he thought about when he first learned raiton.*

Hm...I learned Raiton over three years ago. It was a hard process, and as Lightning isn't Earth or Water, and is extremely violent and hard to control, it took me some time to master it.
You must concentrate fully. Block everything else out and focus on that one Lightning bolt, sending it towards my clone to attack him.
Don't forget to direct it towards a particular area on him.

Okay I see... I close my eyes to concentrate, focus my chakra towards my hand. i open my eyes and release the chakra and I send a measily little bolt that missed my target. After a few tries I finally hit my target in the chest.

Good work. Not bad for a start.
(Raiton no Jutsu) - Lightning Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will manipulate their chakra to create small bolts of lightning to attack their target.
Now, using the exact same way you focused your Raiton earlier, I want you to generate a pool of it into your hand. Then, when you believe you have stored enough chakra, slam the ground with your hand and release the chakra through it towards my feet. Remember to maintain steady control as you do so.

Yaaay I got one!! :D on to the next one!

Okay same way I did the other one. Clearing my mind, focusing all chakra to one hand, and I thrust my hand towards the ground. I release little amount of chakra and only end up hurting my hand -.- I try again. Focus my chakra to one palm, gathering a much as possible, I concentrate and thrust to the groun. But with fear of hurting my hand again I lose concentration and only crate a small hole where I released the chakra. I try once again realizing that I need to see and think about where I want the flow of released chakra to go. I once again store chakra, focus it to one hand, and thrust towards the ground. I keep concentration and try to control where the released chakra is going and I Am able to hit sensei with the discharged chakra.

Excellent. Don't forget to describe the effects - I would most likely be paralyzed if it strikes me.
(Raiton: Raikou Oonami) - Lightning Release: Lightning Surge
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will concentrate their chakra and slam their hand on the ground to release a surge of lightning across the ground to the opponents feet to shock them.
Both of the jutsus I have taught you so far are instantaneous. They don't require handseals and are super fast, so you can easily use them in battle to shock an opponent. But you have to keep distance in mind.
This next jutsu is more unique and says a lot about the Lightning element itself.
This time, instead of focusing your Raiton chakra into your hand, I want you to focus on letting it surround and blanket your body. Push it out from the pores of your skin and let it cover you like a shield.

Hmm I doubt a poorly discharged raiton jutsu could paralyze but yes sir ill keep it in mind...

I stand still and focus on expanding the chakra throughout my body. I try to push out the chakra through my body but it only comes out through my hands.. I ask sensei what's an easy way to expel chakra from your body? Our what do you have to feel our think to expel chakra throughout your body?

You have a chakra system that runs throughout your entire body, allowing you to release chakra from almost anywhere (especially with the concept of the Byakugan, one should understand this well.) So given such a shield of Lightning, what kind of moves do you think this can block against?

Precisely. Weak earth jutsu as well.
(Raiton: Raijingu Sanda) - Lightning Style: Raging Thunder
Rank: D
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user hits the opponent with an electric field shield that covers the users body.
Okay, this next is also somewhat similar.
Begin by summoning up that same electric field. However, charge up the electricity so that there is enough power in it for it to explode.
Then, proceed to hit my clone with that exact power.
