Since the burner response isn't instant turn it down just before it hits
boiling. Or just set the dial so it goes just above the simmer point and
never really hits boil.

Use those slower response times to your advantage!! It took me years to get
used to waiting until food was actually done before shutting the burner off
the first time I changed to gas.

Happily I'm back to an electric stove.
