Find a champion you're good with that has carry potential/isn't banned a lot (rengar's on sale now if you need one), and just ride it like a mule. From what I've seen, teams in silver/bronze are lacking quality adc's and junglers now, so picking either of those two roles and just not making tons of mistakes is probably going to get you a win 80-90% of the time.

i do main ADC actually but im usually stuck with a support who doesnt know how to support, especially in OCE this problem is really bad. and my mistakes early game are usually non existant, just when mid game starts to come around i start making a tonne of errors. but that will come with practice

I can't give you too many specific tips as of right now but some general tips for climbing as ADC in bronze/silver are

Farm (FOCUS ON CS) farming and last hitting are things anyone can improve on easily and will improve your game
If your support is just plain terrible other than asking him for basic things such as using as relic stacks (and do it in a nice way) you shouldn't say anything to him. Flaming him will just make him play worse and a lot of the times players dont take in game criticism well.
If your support isnt warding you should upgrade your trinket to the greater stealth totem so you can ward for yourself when you farm a side lane. If he/she is warding then go for a blue trinket.
Learn basic lane matchups for example, as vayne vs caitlyn you need to go for last hits when she is going for last hits and you need to trade when she turns around after trying to zone you.

If you want more specific tips add me in game ill be glad to help

Worst case scenario, you can always add me if you need a support (although the only ones I'm really good with also happen to be mid-laners). Also, focus on making less mistakes and less on making more positives. People always focus on doing too many positives nowadays, then it comes to bite them in the a-- huge (being 3 for 3 is way better than being 5 for 12).
