If you have a simple sweep pattern or riff you want to learn, find a speed that is comfortable to play it at, learn to play it cleanly at that speed and increase the BPM by 10 every time you can play it clean at a given speed. It sounds simple but your playing will take off once you put this into practice. You can apply the same concept to whole songs as well by downloading a guitar pro tab and decreasing the speed then working your way up to full speed, Songsterr is an app that can do this too if you only have mobile available. Even at my level, I recently learned Akroasis by Obscura and started with the tab at 30% speed and worked my way up to full speed; it's just a good way of learning things on an instrument. Remember to have patience and best of luck to you.
