Hello Fedodika,
I really like your persistance with this portrait, I think that's great! You're getting pretty close too. As chubby_cat mentioned, getting a likeness is all about the subtle relationships between facial features. You can obviously draw a head quite well already. I find that sometimes in cases like this, and for the purposes of learning, tracing the proportions can help you see where you're consistently making mistakes. I don't advise you do an entire portrait on the basis of a traced proportion but rather use it to compare against your most recent effort to see where you can improve next time.
I tried to account for the distortion in your photo a bit but it isn't perfect so maybe you can do a better job than me here but maybe this helps?
