Quickest (not painless) way to learn smooth shifting and wheel spin control. Buy an old 2-stroke dirt bike. You may injury yourself and break some 10 dollar levers, but you'll learn fast, and won't tear up your daily driver.
Seriously, upgrading to Michelin AS/3 tires will help rain traction.
Also keep in mind jamming the clutch in quick makes you no-wheel-drive and can help you regain control. This works best if you get it in before you get too sideways.
Practice makes perfect, find an open, smooth parking lot (no light poles) and work on recovering for big slides.
No body is born with this skill, it's learned. The good news is it's fun to learn. Be safe.
