I enabled Lets Encrypt SSL from cPanel for my sites but after installed this features then my websites run slowly. Why https is slower than http? is there a way to speed up for https sites?

SSL will add a very slight delay while the certificate is verified before the secure connection is established but most of the time this happens so fast you don't notice.
How are you verifying this performance change ? is it "just feels" slower or have you used an external tool like https://gtmetrix.com/

This is not normal and you should not notice changes but If your server is overloaded or slow then you will notice this changes.

It should not act like this specially with SSL like Let's Encrypt because of this is light type SSL and not a EV SSL which really slowdown speed.
