She's got to want to learn.
I think my fiancee is intimidated by the fact:
1. It's my car and she knows i love it 
2. Plenty of low down torque so it takes off more quickly than she's used to which combined with no.1 above, scares her. 
I think the main thing is she cant see the point, doesn't want to race / isn't really into driving etc. so has no desire to learn. SO despite my best intentions to try and teach her, we just end up argueing about it. Next time we're some place deserted, i'll have another go. 
At low speed in your driveway, i think it's almost impossible for her to damage it in the short time you've got remaining. I dont think she's very likely to burn out the clutch reversing it in your driveway!
