'98 Expy stalling

My '98 Expy has just started stalling on me at stop lights (check engine light came on too). I am going to take it to get checked out but being that I'm a girl, I need all the advise I can get before I take it to a mechanic. Thanks for the help!

Will it keep running if you keep your foot on the gas? If so, your idle air control valve (IACV) may be bad and check your air filter.

Does it always start right back up after stalling, or do you have trouble restarting it?

Check out this thread. I had the same problem. The below thread fixed my issue. Get autozone to read the trouble codes. If they are the same as the thread I attached, you should be able to easily fix it.
