3 verbs - to, finite forms

[Nightmare85]

Hello,
I don't know where to put the finite forms:
Stop trying teaching me your lessons! - sounds strange
Stop trying to teach me your lessons! - sounds ok
Stop to try teaching me your lessons! - sounds ok, but I prefer #2
Stop to try to teach me your lessons! - sounds strange

Stop trying being cool! - sounds strange
Stop trying to be cool! - sounds ok
Stop to try being cool! - sounds ok, but I prefer #2
Stop to try to be cool! - sounds strange

Thank you

Cheers!

Number 2 is correct in both cases. When followed by a verb, it is:

Try to.....
Don't try to......
Stop trying to......
