Great stuff. Just a few issues I see with the shading and focal length.

Keep in mind the distance between the ear and the corner of the eye. It seems the distortion in the front of the face is similar to a 80mm lens while the right side of the jaw (image left) is more of a 120mm. Then you have the ear which seems to be more of a 40 - 50mm (Wide-Angle). Nothing too serious. Quick fix would be to just make the ear a bit bigger.

Best way to train your eye to see these relations is just grab a camera (phone also works) and find someone who's willing to be your guinea pig.

You can just look at focal length comparison images online too but playing around with it irl somehow wires it into your brain and it's easier to produce from memory afterwards.

In terms of shading you're pretty much spot on aside from the cast shadow on her neck and the way the shadow wraps around her face. Again those aren't very noticeable things.

I really like the hair and the subtle shading on the clothes

Here's a rough overprint of what I mean. It's a bit dirty but you get the overall idea.
