I always press on the clutch before braking, for example: getting over the speed bump, cornering, etc...
I've been doing this for the past 2 years.
I'm not sure this habit is good or bad, but I feel that my ride will be smoother from doing this.
Any advice?

I'm not sure because last time my driving instructor told me that pressing clutch while cornering is a very dangerous act.

I also have this habit, but i only press the clutch when braking near the bump.

Nomally i drive fast on straight roads but i slow down on the speed bumps (slow as possible).

Because of this habit i have to press clutch for the car to be smooth (using gear 2).

Will this cause the clutch to be worn out faster ?

EDIT : i dont use the clutch to make the car to slow down. i slow down the car first and then i press clutch when going on the speed bumps.

+1.
Today I tried to pass through the speed bump without pressing the clutch.
The car feels jerky when I accelerate.
