Hello, I will be giving you your feedback on your box challenge. I can tell that you were confident in your lines because the boxes had smooth and quick lines.
Suggestions: 1) When giving your boxes shadows, don't do the criss cross lines. It is visually confusing to the viewers. To give it shadows, it would be best to darken (or color in) a side of a box. 2) the box on the fourth page looks unfinished. It seemed that you forgot to finish the box. 2) the box on the first page looks a bit messy (the one that has a box on top of another). You seemed confused on how your box should look like.
Overall, your boxes look well done and hope you continue onto the next lesson!

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.
Ellipse Master Template
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.
