i think what you described is normal of a manual transmission and has nothing to do with the clutch. you can feel the jerky sensation especially for the first 2 gear changes, to counter that you can release the clutch slowly, but you will burn more clutch. you have to come to a compromise on how much jerk you willing to tolerate and how much clutch you willing to burn

If you upgrade to sports clutch will be worst. It's all about your footwork.
With good knowledge of theory is fine, but put it in practical. Cos with good theory and no practical experience, all theory is bull shit!

you need to match your rev and when you change gear...all this part and parcel of manual car..with more experience should be fine..
