You can definitely learn your pieces faster. The problem is that you only have one way to practice - mere repetition with a metronome - whereas fast learners have countless ways of practicing.
This is normal though. Most students have no idea that there are many ways of practicing, and choosing the right ones can save you hours or days of practice time.
A great book detailing different practice techniques is Philip Johnston's The Practice Revolution.

And from memory this one is more aimed at the teacher: The Practice Revolution: Getting great results from the six days between lessons
Let me suggest The Practice Revolution by Philip Johnston. It will likely cover most of the issues you'll be dealing with. It's written for teachers like you.
