This is actually a decent amount of work at a pretty good level for 4 months. Keep up what you're doing, you're definitely on the right track. All I can say right now is, be wary of how you're lighting your shots, a lot of these are quite dark, and in a demo reel you want your shots to be clear. My typical set up for lighting (at least for playblasts) is simply a single Directional Light tilted downwards slightly, and an Ambient Light with it's intensity set to roughly 0.300.

Same sort of thing applies with your dancing robot animation, while I understand that this shot is technically supposed to be dark until the lights turn on, for animation purposes you still want people to see the animation of the character, not the light show.

Keep it up!
