I've been in 4 DEs and I still can't heel-toe downshift. The track I drive doesn't require much shifting. Normally when I down shift from 4th to 3rd, I just smoothly apply the brakes in a straight line and downshift to 3rd and slowly let out the clutch. 3rd to 2nd is the same except I watch my speed and slowly let out the clutch around 45 - 50 MPH.
Just relax and listen to your instructor, you will have a great time.
