If you've only played since late january this is very good! I think you should work on your rhythm. Right now you are pushing and pulling the tempo a lot. I think you should practice this piece a bit with a very steady rhythm, and then re-introduce your pushing and pulling, but be a bit more careful with it. Think of it as an ingredient in a cake, if there is way too much sugar the cake simply becomes too sweet, but the right amount of sugar is what makes it taste great. The same goes with pushing and pulling the tempo (also known as rubato). Hope that helps!
