always downshift and use brakes without clutch in. When rpms get low just downshift more and continue breaking. If im coming to a stop that i expect i get to 2nd gear then when under 10km/h (its practically near stopping) i will clutch in and neutral. If its a stop thats a little more unexpected and aggressive like a sudden red light or someone goes a little too far in front of me turning right i can down shift properly until about 3rd. My friend can get up to 2nd but he drive a lot so hes got a lot of practice. Just practice practice practice!
If it hasnt been mentioned you want to ideally always stay in gear so you can hit the gas in an event of an emergency that might require you to hit the gas. If you shift neutral and brake you will have to spend that extra thinking power in an emergency situation of finding a gear which many times is impossible for it to be smooth in comparison to downshifting constantly.
