hey man,
Great job on your studies.
I'll just give you some pointers on how I fix my head drawings. I start by drawing in facial landmarks first before I put the features. Here's my quick guideline. (*this is not perfect, but I hope you'll see where the planes on the head are facing)
I also played and replayed this video until I get the hang on this process. If you can find Hogarth's book, that would be a treasure.

Whichever guide that's easy for you. Focus first on the form and planes of the head, then worry about rendering later. Rendering comes naturally if you figured out the planes.
That's it. Hope I've helped you with this one. I'm no pro, and on bad days I encounter the same problems also. So just keep on studying. Good luck. :)
