I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fan' is the definition.
(I know that fan can be written as devotee)

'dove fluttering over starting place' is the wordplay.
'fluttering' indicates an anagram.
'over' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (in a down clue, some letters go over others).
'starting place' becomes 'tee' (teeing is a kind of placing. I am not sure about the 'starting' bit.).
'dove' is an anagram of 'devo'.
'devo'+'tee'='DEVOTEE'
