The most that you need to work on is continuing to practice your ghosting method for more confident lines, and to also fully reach your lines from point to point as some strokes stop partly like in the rough perspective and organic perspective exercises, plus it looks like you went over your ellipses more than two times, so try and cut those down by ghosting more and letting muscle memory handle it. Other than that you show extremely solid execution and understanding on what the exercises ask, on top of an already blooming understanding of perspective shown by the rotated boxes exercise.
Next Steps:
I recommend moving onto Lesson 2, but if you so wish you'd also be recommended to go through with taking a detour and doing the 250 box challenge to improve your ghosting and line confidence if you so wish, on top of the extra perspective practice.

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.
Pentel Pocket Brush Pen
This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
