Whenever I teach someone to drive a stick, I always start by having them learn to let out the clutch smoothly without giving it any gas at all. This way they get a feel for how the clutch works and where in the travel range it actually starts to grab. Then they work on giving it a little gas and letting the clutch out a little faster until they find the right combination that isn't jerky and doesn't have the motor over-revving. I have had great success with this method, you might try it in a level parking lot.
