Hi Downtime,
Firstly on Imgur you can add more thab one image to one album. That way you only need to post one link.
You have also only posted one page of superimposed lines and one of ghosted planes. The exercises call for 2 pages of each.
Your lines start off quite wobbly. Remember to trust your ghosting. There is also some fraying at both ends. Make sure you are taking the time to place your pen in the correct place at the start of your lines.
Your lines for ghosted planes are much smoother so thats great. They do curve a little sometimes. It may help to try and consciously curve in the other direction.
It's a good start and you are moving in the right direction. Do the 2 missing pages, one of superimposed lines and one of ghosted planes keeping these things in mind and then move on. Good luck!

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.
