ELO Hell! Help!

So I started playing League around November of 2017 (the preseason) and only started playing ranked around February or March. I've been stuck in between Silver 3 and Silver 2 for the past couple of months. I'm really trying to get to Gold before the season ends to get the rewards. I don't know what to do, I main Camille. I went From silver 5 to Silver 3-2 using her. I mostly play mid, ADC, or jungle. Lately I have been going on a losing streak because either I win my lane and get ahead but my team fucks up and loses the game or I lose my lane and end up losing the game for my team. It's frustrating because I feel like most games now depend on the better jungler or if you play some snowballing champs. I HATE PLAYING ASSASSINS because they're boring to me. I usually like to play utility or burst mages and/or lategame ADCS. What do I do????

just wait til you get to plat 5, thats where the real elo hell begins, it ends at diamond 4.

i suggest picking a champ you want to learn/play ,watching some diamond+ streamers, and then imitating that play style into your games.

Play correctly, dont tilt, and dont give into bad calls.

It sounds like you're having difficulty transitioning your leads into mid/lategame.i would recommend trying to identify when you become ahead and using that time (you're fed, enemies aren't) and using that strength to get allies ahead or force early fights at objectives. The worst thing you can do as a player with a lane-dominant style is to sit back and let laning phase extend, waiting for other lanes to get ahead/behind without your influence.

This doesn't mean that you're going to do an 8 minute rotation to bot and force an inhib, but create some pressure. Leave lane to gank, ward the enemy buff in your jungle side when they're dead/other side of the map, make it so you control the games tempo, so that it plays into your fedness, not away from it.
