If you want to do rev matching: brake/clutch down to decelerate, shift into 2nd or 3rd, blip the throttle/accelerator pedal (heel toe), and let off the clutch while simultaneously braking, and turn. You don't have to go down the gears in order. Just make sure that you're speed (both RPM/engine speed and wheel speed) match or else you'll jerk the car/slip the clutch.

ah, lol guess I should have made it a little clearer, that was just for him to practice downshifting until he's comfortable. Once he gets that down he can just decelerate and go from 5th to 3rd or 2nd when you know where the shift points / rpms should be.
