Random people don't work well as passengers. At least in my experience.
Apart from all the theoretical knowledge, you also need trust. Riding with someone who does not trust you completely will be a very unpleasant experience.
If it sucks the first time, don't forget that it's equally your fault and hers. Try all the maneuvers you can think off in the parking lot, and maybe most importantly, let her move around the bike and notice the influence she makes on the ride.
Good luck!
