I will usually learn it piece by piece... learn them at full speed, then combine it...

first of all, use guitar pro
break down in small pieces and practice more the most difficult. play each part at the speed you can (you don't have to play all slowly just because of a part)_ -------------------- my "Thank you GMC!" video

I break it into pieces, kinda like the lessons here at GMC, and practice at slow tempo. I've found out that when I practice too large parts at a time, I've forgotten it after a while.

Piece by piece is a good way to go. If there are many similar sequences, try to combine them so they are not boring, and make a nice little interesting "practice game" out of them. You should practice them as long as you feel comfortable playing them. When you stop feeling comfortable, take a break, day or two and carry on pushing it up the tempo.

Normally I go piece by piece, like this I can focus on the difficult parts and only continue after I can play those parts without problems. But of course there are other options as well, like learning the song as a whole, just in a slower tempo. Basically anything that makes it more easy for you is fine.

I mostly learn the whole piece first at a slow tempo, and then I'm starting to speed things up.

I prefer to broke down in pieces. When I learn to whole piece i try to play a little faster, this way I'm more confident with the original speed.
