Most cars do NOT make a "grinding noise" when changing gears. I've owned manual transmission cars since 1968, and have never had one "grind". If the clutch isn't releasing all the way, it will cause grinding of the gears - or it could be worn synchronizers within the gearbox. Get it checked out by a reputable Independent shop - chances are you could be looking at a clutch job or replacing the transmission.
