I am kinda new to pull-ups and i am having a problem. So right now I can do 8 pull-ups in a row but if I try to do another set after some rest, I can only get 4 to 5 reps. Is there something I can change with my pull-up training?

You can do assisted pull-ups to increase your number of reps. If you have a gym membership, many have an assisted pullup machine. They also sell straps and bungee cords that can be used on regular pullup bar
