i think you should learn with atc or similar device - save the gri gri for later when your more familar with concepts and techniques around leading - a gri gri will load your top piece more then an atc. - it removes the properites of the dynamic belay. (edit: in some cases)
2nd edit: i would add that i use a glove when belaying a lead climber and on long raps - it's comfortable and could save a life or limb.
