Hello Mamind congrats on completing lesson 1. Here are my thoughts,
Superimposed Lines: Arching on those longer lines. This diminishes with practices but you can also consciously arc in the opposite direction. I'd also like to suggest that you try more complex curves like s curves for example.
Ghosted Planes: Remember that at most you should be going over your ellipses 2-3 times.
Rough perspective: Some of your lines are extended past the horizon line, I'd advise against this since it makes it a bit messier. You should also remember width lines should be parallel to your horizon and height lines perpendicular to your horizon.
Rotated boxes: nicely done, though I suggest you employ hatching to help clarify everything.
Conclusion: Overall a strong submission, not a lot of errors to point out. I have no issue with marking this as complete. Good luck on the 250 Box Challenge and have fun.
Best of luck moving forward

This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
