Takes is a transitive verb; "To (learn)" is a linking verb (like am, is, was, were, are, to, to be, etc, etc). It's not telling you about learning to ski, it's telling you what it takes to learn to ski.

People, who are well in Grammar:
In the sentence, "It takes patience and courage to learn how to ski", the word "takes" is a transitive verb.

Transitive. Because a linking verb links two phrases.

It's transitive.
Learn is the verb.
Also, your question should be 'People who are good at grammar...', and then continued by an actual question.
Apostrophes and commas would be helpful as well.
