It may be due to the way that you are applying the throttle. The computer that regulates the clutch disengagement doesn't know if you are about to drag race a corvette or if you are inching up to a parking curb beyond the way that you are modulating the throttle.
Treat the gas pedal the way that you would in a manual car rather than an automatic. Apply very steady throttle (not increasing or decreasing) until you feel the clutch completely disengaged. Aim for about 1,500 RPM. Once you feel and hear that the clutch is fully disengaged, increase the throttle.
If the clutch is jerky from a start, you are either doing it wrong, or it is extremely worn.
Also, if you are leaving from a start and turning, jerkiness can become noticeable in the differentials. Servicing the fluid in these every 20k miles or so will help significantly.
