Did you have any issues with shifting before the repairs. What repairs were carried out on your engine? Check your clutch master cylinder reservior for proper fluid level.

it had a slight issue somtime it was hard to shift into first but all the other gears were fine

i had to get a new motor because the old one siezed

i asked the mechanic if all the fluids were good and he said yes but i guess i sould check them myself also somthing whines when i push in the clutch it almost sounds like a power steering whine

So when the engine was replaced, the flywheel and clutch were not looked at?
I know it's a bit late to say but a good technician would have brought that to your attention. How many miles were on the old engine/clutch? At this stage I would bleed the clutch slave cylinder.
