You're following each exercise as intended. Some of your mistakes seem to come from carelessness, but i can see you have the right idea. Just remember to have patience

For future reference, when giving other students feedback, you may want to try using Elodin's unofficial critique guides. He's got some for:
The guides function something like checklists, giving you clear things to focus on and address to ensure that your feedback is thorough. Of course, either way the kind of feedback that is really helpful to students does take time - so if you don't have time to apply that kind of approach, then it may be best to leave it to others, simply because providing more limited feedback yourself will reduce the chances of the student getting feedback from others.

Thanks, i knew the guide existed but i was never able to find it before. I'll keep it in mind for the future!
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
