Oh, that was really thoughtless. Tell him, that remarks like this will not lead anywhere in directions of improvement. It would take away a good bit of motivation from me, if I were in your situation.
Concentrate on telling each other as precise as possible what you think might be better. It can be a happy try-and-error game. See it as fun, not as heavy duty. Act a little playfully - that might help a lot.
There is a sentence coming to my mind that seems to fit in here:
We don't make mistakes, we just have happy little accidents. Bob Ross
Remember that and enjoy each other!
I wish you both well,
