I usually do a lot of spotting for them to get the angles but I've used the underswing to mat stack where the mats are higher than the bar.
Also the fall from support to candlesticks.

I like to teach 2 consecutive back hip circles before teaching an underswing shoot. Once they can do 2 consecutive, I just tell them to do one and a half back hip circles, then push away from the bar.

Tons of spotting and underswing dismounts from no cast...just hold and rock back. I also go into spotted clear hips at the same time to give them the concept.

At our gym, for step 3 which has BHC connected to underswing dismount, the coach was spotting them for two consecutive hip circles, I guess to give them the idea that it was one and a half back hip circles.
