It's tricky and loud, but you'll figure it out, just takes time. Some people say just put it at 2K rpm and slowly let out of the clutch. I typically do it much lower than that, like 1200rpm. From what you're saying it just sounds like you need to get some left leg practice. Try sitting on a completely flat spot and only letting out on the clutch, no gas. You should be able to start rolling forward without any throttle at all. This will help you learn where the grabbing point of the clutch is. Practice practice practice.
