Hello,
First of all, for future submissions, please try to upload the pages in order and Portrait. You have an option on Imgur to rearrange the photos before generating the link, and I guess you can rotate them from the phone. This will come in handy at the 250 boxes challenge.
Lines
Superimposed Lines exercise, most of them look good. I like that the frying is mostly at the end. I see that you did not try the ''s'' superimposed lines so I will give you this below.
Ghosted Lines exercise and Ghosted Planes - it is really important to start the line and end it exactly where you have the points. The lines are a little wobbly, you have to be really confident when drawing the line. The lines and the ellipses must be drawn confidently, prioritizing confidence and smoothness,over accuracy.
Ellipses
Table of ellipses -Ellipses are Overall ok. You could have experimented with the angles but they look ok.
Ellipses in Planes - the ellipses should touch all the sides of the plane. Use the Ghosting method, it helps a lot. Most of them do touch all the planes, I am really impressed by this.
Funnels - the funnel ellipses look quite nice, remember that the Ellipses must be drawn through ellipses 2 to 3 times, (2 times preferably).Some of them don't touch the exterior lines, but you can improve this in time.
Boxes
Plotted Perspective - looks really crowded, maybe the lines suggested in the lessons as optional would have helped.
Rough Perspective - You are missing a page. It is a hard one for everyone. I would love to see more confident lines when constructing the boxes.
Rotated Boxes - this looks good, it is a complicated one but you should feel proud that you had the courage to start it and have beautiful results.
Organic Perspective - you will have time to learn more about the box perspective in the 250 boxes challenge. :)
Next Steps:
I would like to see a page of "S" shape Superimposed lines and one page of Rough Perspective - the one that is missing.

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
