Is it the type of papper that is making my shading messy?

I agree with @boilerpharm's advice to use a piece of paper to prevent smudging the graphite around. But if you are referring to the texture and value consistency within the pear, it could be some of the paper texture showing through, but I think how you layer in the graphite could have a greater impact. With the heavier layering in the dark values, I think this shows good consistency, but with the lighter halftones, it could help to start with a lighter pencil and lighter pressure and gradually layer in tone until you reach the needed value. That way, it creates a cleaner and consistent look with the paper texture evened out.

Try putting another clean piece of paper under your hand when you draw, so you aren't rubbing if through the graphite. That should help a lot. I use a scrap of tracing paper.
