Hi Andy,
When pulling out of a junction, or any slow speed turn, trail (apply lightly and continuously) your rear brake, whilst also looking where you want to go as you turn. The rear brake will help smooth out any jerky clutch movement and serves to reduce your turning circle. At first you might want to experiment trailing the rear brake by riding as slow as you can in a straight line, slipping the clutch a little, keeping your head up and focusing on something straight ahead but in the distance to assist your balance.
The fact that you can identify areas of concern tells me that you are thinking about what you're doing post ride. That's great. What you could add now is the intention to focus on a specific aspect of your ride every time you go out. At the early stage of your riding career there's so much to think about that it helps to break it down and focus one thing at a time.
Putting miles under your tyres without any forethought is as likely to allow bad habits to develop as it is to help you.
To help you get started on your own plan there are some fantastic
technique articles written by a trainer I know called Kevin Williams. There's 78 articles there, so loads to read and try on the road.
It's a lot less painful to learn from others mistakes than your own. Have fun!
