It's possible that your derailleur hanger is bent, that can easily cause bad shifting. That could either be bent back into place or replaced if it is removable.
Otherwise maybe fit a whole new gear cable (most cables come with instructions on fitting, or see the park tool website)?
Also, is the cassette and chain in a good condition?
