Faces are tough! This is just my theory, but there's two things in art. There's appeal and there's correctness. You've got the correctness down, just work on the appeal. I worked for the longest time on appeal without care for the correctness if you catch my drift ;)
And your faces are not crappy they could just use a few small touches to bump the appeal, not bad!
One thing to look out for is the size of the heads proportions within itself. Make sure theres a lot of room for the jaw, for the eyes to sit apart, for the nose to sit on the face... It's a lot but with practice you'll see it! Try to take a leap of faith and say, hey what if i made this jaw longer or made this eye bigger, just try stuff out while you draw even if you've indicated a "correct" mark dont hesitate to erase and find a more appealing shape!
The profile view is actually a good character, but the 3/4 loses the feel of that kind of young asian boy, which could be tough to maintain.
I left a little thing to show some little extra lines and things you could add, not that i'm the most appealing artist hehe, but i hope it helps!
