This can be eliminated early in training just by teaching them what happens and why during the basic attitude instruction. The best way to do that is your basic power on stall, pitch for airspeed power for altitude.

Don't forget to show your student that it also works the other way too... pitch for altitude, power for airspeed. This will save him confusion later when he starts flying IFR and doing ILS approaches.
