Hello Phall!
Congratulations on finishing Lesson 1! Hopefully my critique can be of some help to you. I'll focus on lines, ellipses and boxes respectively. If I'm not mentioning any one specific exercise it means I think you did it according to instructions and whatever general comments I've made on lines/ellipses/boxes may apply. Let's get to it!
Lines
The ghosted lines are great, keep practicing them and be sure to include some longer ones to get used to that as well!
I see a bit of a problem with fraying at both ends on the superimposed lines so make sure you're properly lining up your starting point every time. As you mention yourself there's a bit more of an arch in the lines in the rough perspective exercise.
Ellipses
Here's a bit more to work on. The tables of ellipses are showing some problems: make sure you draw through your ellipses no less than 2 times and no more than 3. The ellipses should fit snugly within the borders and follow the same angle in a section. Ghost your ellipses thoroughly and keep practicing this. It seems your control gets a bit better in the funnels so good job! Just try to make sure you align the minor axis correctly.
Boxes
In a couple of places i can see some re-drawn or "fixed" lines. Resist that urge. I know you may know this but: if you mess up a line, leave it as if it was correct and move on. Fixing/re-drawing lines only creates bad habits and messier drawings. There's no point in trying to cover our mistakes, we want to see them clearly so as to improve from them.
You've made a great effort with the rotated boxes and the organic perspective. For some reason it seems the accuracy of line is suffering in the organic perspective. Make sure you ghost your lines enough, even if the end result is a box and not a single line or plane.
All in all: you've done the exercises according to instruction and seem to know what to be aiming for!
Good job and keep it up!
Next Steps:
Remeber the 50%-rule and keep doing for example ghosted planes + ellipses as warm up.
On to conquer the 250 boxes!
