see if you can find something a bit newer and easier to drive to teach her on.

take her to a secluded location (no, really this isn't leading anyplace ) so she can't get flustered by other cars around.

Teach her to just start the car rolling, feel the clutch engagement. Have her get the car rolling 50, 75 or ever 100 times until she can do it easily. That's the hardest part. Once the car is rolling, the shifting is easy to do.
