First time ever drawing a portrait. (I've typically drawn super heroes comic book style) Shading with pencils is new to me

Nice portrait drawing! Try using more straight lines. Even for the shapes of the values.
@kiko_draws
Somewhat experienced beginner here, I've been drawing super heroes on and off for about 3-4 years now with most of the stuff I've learned coming from YouTube and no formal art training. (I wanted to take this course so I could be sure to learn and sharpen all my fundamentals) This is my first life drawing (is a pear considered a life drawing?) and I'm don't think I'm particularly good with shading with pencils. I used an HB, 2B, 4B, and 6B pencil

Welcome aboard! I think you've got a good start -- try sharpening up the edges of your value groups: you have nice simplification but the definition of the shapes may be starting to get too soft/fuzzy to be clear. It can help to lightly draw in the edges beforehand to use as a guide, but keep it very soft so it doesn't appear visible in the final drawing. Along the same lines, the dark edge separating the light and dark side on the pear should appear as its own shape of the darkest value, instead of a sharp outline. Hope this helps! :)
