I installed the helper spring which helped out a lot as well, but when I was trying to learn to shift with the OEM Spring, I found it helpful to plant the heel into the ground when using the clutch and just pivoting your foot to let the pedal slide under your foot when letting off the clutch. This helped me control the release and make it slower since the OEM Spring had a tendency to want to push the pedal back out at me really quickly which would cause the jumpiness or out right stall.

I also learned how to drive manual on this car and spent a weekend in an empty parking lot just practicing from stop to 1st and repeated until I got it down smoothly.
